Router help request

To all,
OK, time for an update. I've changed the firewall rules to not use the
MAC_MASQ scheme, and turned off dhcpd so I can get static routing up and
running. I'll put off dynamic routing for a while until I can get the
router to route. Right now, the router can be used to talk between boxes
on the LAN, or get the router itself to connect to the 'net, but I cannot
get the LAN boxes to talk to the 'net, or to each other at the same time
for that matter. This puts me closer to the goal, but I'm still not
there yet. Just so everyone can understand what I'm trying to do, here
is the /etc/hosts table I'm working with...
192.168.1.20 sparky
192.168.1.25 iMac
192.168.1.26 WindozeHP
192.168.0.1 router
192.168.1.22 herky
192.168.1.21 VALinux
127.0.0.1 localhost
Here is the routing table from the same client on the LAN that provided
/etc/hosts: (ignore
the duplicated eth0 entry in the client version as the ethernet device
was inactive
and unplugged on the router when I printed thse files....)
[root at a24b94n86client186 ben]# /sbin/route

Here is the routing table from the router itself.
[root at router root]# route

[root at router root]#
I'm not sure, but I think I may have messed this up. Some how it seems
like the routing tables for the router should be simpler. I can't have
two default routes can I??? (One for 192.168.X.X and one for non reserved
addresses.) I think I need a gateway entry or something in the router,
or at least a way to define a network path from eth1 on the router
straight to eth0 on the router and out to the net with address
translation and all the goodies that go with it. Any suggestions would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben
