cannot get connectioh sharing to work..

hi..

i have a small laptop which has RH 9 installed on it.

eth0 is internal network card connected to cable modem.
eth1 is edimax pcmcai network card connected the hub which has several
computers connected to it:

problem is when i try to use the internet from one of the client
computers (windows) i cannot get a response.

here is my iptable;

ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state
RELATED,ESTABLISHED
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere
LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level
warning

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT (0 references)

ACCEPT udp -- cachedns.goldenlines.net.il anywhere
udp spt:domain dpts:1025:65535
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere

and here is my dmesg

when 192.168.1.33 is the ip from the windows.

as u can see the window does send signal out, but shouldn't i get an
out=eth0 as well? sending signals back to the windows?
