Check out the various Serial HOWTO's, PPP HOWTO, and other similarly named howto's. I set up the above using one of the HOWTO's before, but I can't remember exactly which one.

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and then ensure the route's are added properly. I don't understand your IP masquerade problem.
