This line indicated that it will forward anything received on interface eth0
with an address of 192.168.2.0/24.  However, this should be an impossibilty
as shown by your output of ifconfig:

># ifconfig
>eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:01:02:BF:1E:0E
>          inet addr:6.42.237.111  Bcast:6.42.239.255  Mask:255.255.252.0
(snip)

As you can see eth0 has your external ip address.  As such the only traffic
that you will receive on this interface with a 192.168.2.0/24 address would
most likely be spoofed.
