In reference to the instructions I received concerning the setup of network 
sharing, can anyone tell me...

I named our local network "VirtualSkyNet" and my gateway address to 
192.168.0.1 during the set-up.  Do I replace the $LOCALNET=192.168.9.0/24 
variable with $VirtualSkyNet=192.168.0.1/24 in the script below?

I assume I only have to run this script once to get Internet sharing 
functional.

David.

You can use this small ease script for sharing Internet to
localnetwork:

###################
#!/bin/sh
modprobe ipchains
IPCHAINS=/sbin/ipchains

Any="0.0.0.0/0"
localhost_localdomain="127.0.0.1/32"
$LOCALNET="192.168.9.0/24"

$IPCHAINS -P input ACCEPT
$IPCHAINS -P forward ACCEPT
$IPCHAINS -P output ACCEPT

$IPCHAINS -F
$IPCHAINS -X

# input rules

# forward rules
$IPCHAINS -A forward -s $LOCALNET -d $Any -j MASQ
# output rules
###################

$LOCALNET - is your local network, change this if need.

Before set FORWARD_IPV4=true in file /etc/sysconfig/network and
say:
service network restart
