This problem is really confusing.  I'm trying to setup a linux box with
two network cards as a gateway.  No matter how I set it up when I try
and ping it returns Destination Host Unreachable.  All the connections
are set up properly, I even went to the extend of setting up both the
network cards on the same network, and trying to ping each other and
that still doesn't work.  My distro is a standard rh6.2 so i havn't
touched firewall settings or host.allow/deny.

Can anyone give me any other avenues to explore?

Thanx matt
