2.) The Problem: 
Need to forward (redirect?) packets received on eth0 of the FW to the WWW
box and obviously send back the requested information.  ie. enter
192.168.200.240 in the browser and get a webpage back from WWW. I'm
attempting to use ipchains. At this point I don't even care about a tight
FW, I just need to get the packets flowing. (Will consider other "gratis"
solutions.)

3.) The Scenario on the Linux FW (RH 6.1)
FORWARD_IPV4="true" in /etc/sysconfig/networks
executed insmod /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/ipv4/ip_masq_portfw.o
gateways - Are they required in this situation and if so, 
            which box(es) should be set up with what for a gateway.

routing table is as follows:

Destination    Gateway Genmask        Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.100.0  *       255.255.255.0  U     0      0     0 eth0
192.168.200.0  *       255.255.255.0  U     0      0     0 eth1
127.0.0.0      *       255.0.0.0      U     0      0     0 lo

My attempts thus far have been based on IPCHAINS-HOWTO, but it's a bit
difficult to learn unless you have packet flow already.

Any assistance would be appreciate - even literature other than HOWTO.
