Do you mean you would like the outside world to see a webserver running on the "first" computer?
Or
Do you meant you want the "first" computer to be allowed to access the outside world? (http)

Both situations are similar, and they require to to turn on IP Forwarding and NAT. There are lots of articles on how to do this.
