Mikkel:

Maybe you can help me interpret what I'm seeing.  I'm not very good with
this stuff (yet), so I appreciate any help you can throw my way.  You
mentioned something about a route not being set up.  Please understand
that I did everything exactly the way as I did with my Red Hat 6.1
machine, so possibly Red Hat is no longer setting something by default
that they did before?  Below are the steps you mentioned:

The packets do appear to be on eth0.  Is this correct?  I honestly don't
really understand when you mention about the route not being set up
correctly, so possibly you can reply with a short explanantion, or point
me to a resource that would help explain it?  Any help is really
appreciated.  Thanks.
