My Router Isn't

Trying to set up a router (RH8) between a 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0 subnet
and a 10.1.0.0/255.255.0.0 subnet.

Hosts involved are

   winslow		192.168.100,253  

   gwg		192.168.100.252	(eth0)
   gwg		10.1.1.68		(eth1)

   nowhere		10.1.1.66

>From winslow (aka 192.168.100.253) I can ping:
	gwg			(aka itself)
	192.168.100.252	(aka GWG eth0)
	10.1.1.68		(aka GWG eth1)

but not:
	nowhere		(aka 10.1.1.66)
	10.1.1.66		(aka nowhere)

>From GWG (the router) I can ping:
	winslow 		(aka 192.168.100.253)
	192.168.100.253	(aka winslow eth0)

	gwg			(aka itself)
	192.168.100.252	(aka itself eth0)
	10.1.1.68		(aka itself eth1)

	nowhere		(aka 10.1.1.66)
	10.1.1.66		(aka nowhere)

from nowhere (aka 10.1.1.66) I can ping:

	gwg
	10.1.1.68
	192.168.100.252

but not:
	winslow
	192.168.100.253


Using Webmin on the router (gwg) and looking at the firewall, it shows under
"packet filtering":
	"FORWARD" default "Accept" with no other rules
	"INPUT" default "Accept" with no other rules
	"OUTPUT" default "Accept" with no other rules

Any ideas why I can't ping nowhere (10.1.1.66) from winslow
(192.168.100.253)?
