Dear Al
thanks for your suggestions.
please note that the best data was in
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing.
what is understand is that you have to have different default subnet
mask for both the network.
i tried 255.255.0.0 for one network and 255.255.255.0 for the other.
it worked like a charm.
thanks for your help.
