How do I use a virtualbox guest machine as a gateway?

How do I use a virtualbox guest machine as a gateway? I have a certain problem. I am working on an Ubuntu machine, but I have to use a windows 2003 server guest to connect to a Stonegate VPN to be able to manage our client's website.

"To make this work, you would likely need to enable routing on the Windows Guest, and perhaps NAT, and maybe a bunch of routing on the Ubuntu Host.

If all you need is SSH over the VPN, you might consider installing putty and winscp on the windows guest OS, just to keep things simple.

If you have the configuration of the VPN in the Windows Guest OS, you can look at the configuration and figure out how to connect the Ubuntu VPN client to the VPN server. Also, upgrade to the lastest version of Ubuntu - I've seen a great deal of improvement in network support over the past year."
