I have a very simple SOHO network toplogy consisting of an inexpensive 8-port
hub and cat-5 wiring.  I have a RH 7.2 server and several Win98 machines.
The server has two NICs, one connected to the Internet via a cablemodem and
the other connected to the hub.  The server used iptables to do masqing and
firewalling and everything works like a charm.

However...

Periodically my Win98 systems will lose connectivity to the internet.  When
that happens I can still ping the internet from the server itself but cannot
ping the internet from the Win98 machine.  After a minute or two my Win98
machine will begin working again.

Any idea what might explain this?  Any idea how I can track down what might
be going on?
