Newbie Networking Linux

[Eric Samson]

Doesn't he need to set up IP Chains with MASQ enabled as well?

It's been a long time since I put my NAT box together, it's been 
maintenance-free so long, I forgot how to set it up!  : )

I just retired it for a D-Link DI-701 that you can get at Fry's for $99, 
it's a nifty little NAT box and it can be administered through winblows or 
Linux...

If you are using a NetMask of 255.255.255.0 for your internal address space 
then
192.168.1.1, 192.168.2.1 and 192.168.3.1 are not on the same network.  Try
either changing the netmask to 255.255.0.0 or change your ip's (192.168.2.1 
->
192.168.1.2, 192.168.3.1 -> 192.168.1.3), that will put them on the same
network.  For those boxes the default gateway should be 192.168.1.1 (the
internal ip of your linux box).
