You do need packet forwarding enabled. Look at the contents of
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward -- is it 1? If not type:

        echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

to enable it. To make this happen automatically at startup, make sure that
FORWARD_IPV4=true is in /etc/sysconfig/network.

I don't use the X tools to configure this stuff, so I can't speak specifically
about the suspicious ipv4 packet forwarding button, but since you do need ipv4
packet forwarding turned on, I'd suspect that if there is such a button you
should push it. It'll just make the changes that I mentioned above.

I hope this helps!
