linux to linux connection sharing


Hi!

I have my PC (FC4/WinXP) and my laptop (FC4/WinXP). Now I'm about to configure my laptop FC4 to use the PC as gateway to internet, and have read tons of howto's doing the same I had done, but something's still wrong, however FC4-WinXp and WinXp-WinXp net sharing works fine.

The PC internet ethernet card (eth0) is 192.168.1.0
The PC local ethernet card (eth1) is 192.168.0.1
The laptop local ethernet card (eth0) is 192.168.0.2

I've done
route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
route add default gw 192.168.0.1 dev eth0

but still nothing happens. I tried to ping 192.168.0.1 but only Host unreachable I got back. All interface settings are identical to the ones mentioned in the numerous howto's.

Do you have any idea what I might be missing here?

sorry

some fairy or as the ancient greek called the little elflings who where helping ppl: deamon helped me.
i restarted my laptop and both my sluggish mouse problem and this net sharing problem disappeared.
the funny thing is, i rebooted before i posted that message, so i really don't know what's going on, but it seems that i was doin' it okay anyways. but the mouse miracle is still bugging me...

thank you anyways and sorry for bothering
