There are a couple of things wrong here. One is that 192.168.1.2 should be
192.168.1.0 - that's your network address. But the big thing is that -W eth1
should be -W eth0 -- the interface you name after -W is the interface to the
outside world, out through which packets will be masqueraded.
(Also, I assume that the line break between -W and eth1 isn't really there and
that it was inserted by your MUA.)
Try making those changes and see if things work out.
