Man there is no need to recompile b'coz at standard conditions all you have to enable packet forwarding. See this Internet Sharing Linux (http://www.linuxsolved.com/forums/ftopic115.html)

but if that fails then probably u need to recompilre ur kernel to enable some features and I really don't think it will fail untill you are doing all right.
