I followed specifically the "tests" in the HOWTO.

{Mandrake Box} 
ping 192.168.0.1 - nothing

ping 192.168.0.0 - yes

ping 192.168.0.2 - yes


192.168.0.1 is the IP of eth1 in my Debian box. Is this wrong?

The Debian box is on the internet via a Mediaone Cable Modem. Which I
assume gives me a dynamic IP when I "dial up"

I connect eth0 to the cable modem and eth1 directly to the Mandrake
box's eth0.
