Can't you just set the Linux machine as the gateway on each of the machines
you are using? This should work fine if you have the routing tables
configured properly.
For example.
Host A on the 192.168.1.xxx network should have it's gateway set to the
Linux machine which might be 192.168.1.1
Host B on the other network should have it's gateway set to the same Linux
machine which might be 10.0.0.1
Assuming that IP Forwarding is infact turned on, this should work just fine.
You should check the file /etc/sysconfig/network. There should be a line
like this, FORWARD_IPV4="yes". Make sure it infact says "yes", and not
"no"!
