I think this would be easier if you have the Debian machine connect to the internet. Right now if the 98 machine receives a request for services (telnet) it will think the client what to speak to itself and deny the request, which is the correct behavior. Since the internal network numbers you are using are non-routable (192.168.x.x) no other machines on the internet know how find your host.
Your best solution is to hook the debian machine to internet and use IP masquerade on Linux to route the two windows machines to the internet. Take note that external hosts still cannot initiate a connect with the internal machines unless you get an internal network with real routable addresses. With IP masquerade your Windoze machines will be able to use the Linux machine as a router and initiate connections on the internet. To all hosts on the internet the connection will appear to come from the linux machine for all of your hosts. This is very similar to a proxy setup.
