I probably overlooked something obvious, but here's
my problem:
I've got two NICs in a old 486 that I am trying to configure
as a proxy firewall. Acording to the Firewall-HOWTO, it is
to the point where I should be able to ping machines on either
side of the firewall, but eth0 seems to be the interface of
choice, even when the route is to eth1's own subnet. Trace-
route warns me that it has multiple routes and is using eth0,
ping does not work, and ftp says no route to host. I haven't
played with metrics yet, but I shouldn't have to, should I?
The more specific route points to eth1, but is not being taken.
Any clues?

I'm running redhat 5.0 with the kernel patched and re-compiled with
options
listed in the Firewall-HOWTO. The NICs are both Western-Digital 8003.
I already switched things around to verify that both cards are
functional.
