I have two computers, computer A and computer B. They are interconnected
with a crossover cable plugged into a NIC on each computer.

Computer A (OS SuSE Linux 8.0)
        AMD Athlon XP 1600+, 256 MB RAM, eth0 (D-Link), eth1 (D-Link), 
        external modem      				     
        eth0 Automatic address setup (via DHCP)
        eth1 Static address setup (192.168.0.1)

Computer B (OS SuSE Linux 8.0)
        AMD Athlon 1GB, 256 MB RAM, eth0 (builtin 10B/100BTX Ethernet)
        eth0 Static address setup (192.168.0.2)

Masquerade is compiled into the kernel as a module.

I can ping comp A (eth1)to comp B (eth0)and comp B to comp A, comp A can
ping the ISP's dynamic IP (after dialing in) but comp B gets "network is
unreachable". I have followed the Masquerade howto but it does not define
how to setup the NIC (eth0) to be seen by the other two NIC's which are
interconnected. I have searched google for anything pertaining to my
situation with no luck. Can someone point me in the right direction?
