Hi,
Yes .. if u talking bout linux as workstation machine then u can make routes 2 default gw by following command
route add default gw gwserverip
if u talking the other way round as in u want 2 make linux machine as g/w then i guess u get some masquerading + transparent proxy scripts to let ppl access thru ur machine ...
search google for Transparent Proxy Howto ..
