Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.3.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth1
10.200.0.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         10.200.0.1      0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

This is what it looks like now. I can't figure out how to get the 0.0.0.0 
IP to have the ISP's Mask. 

I had everything set up on the windows box including dns except that I had 
two IPs  for the gateway instead of one. I removed the one for the ISP and 
kept the one that referred to the eth1.

We are making prorress. I can ping eth0 from the windows box. However, 
anything outside that is not accessible. including www.olug .org. Would this 
be caused by not having the correct mask on the line below?

0.0.0.0         10.200.0.1      0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

If so, then how do I go about resolving this?

Thanks for your patience!
