The cable package says Belkin FastCAT5e Network Cable, with RJ45 male
connectors on each end. Are you saying that I have to switch a couple
wires on one end of these cables?

OK, I changed the ip numbers, did the `ifconfig ethx 192.168.x.x up'
thing, and now the route works:
Kernel IP routing table (on behne.us)
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
67.21.58.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth2
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default va-staff-u1-c3f 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
And pings now work to both hosts from the server:
ping -c1 jackie ; ping -c1 jennifer
PING jackie.behne.us (192.168.2.22) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from jackie.behne.us (192.168.2.22): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64
time=0.122 ms
--- jackie.behne.us ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.122/0.122/0.122/0.000 ms
PING jennifer.behne.us (192.168.1.11) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from jennifer.behne.us (192.168.1.11): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64
time=0.119 ms
...and that's odd, since host jennifer is a Windblows box not properly
configured yet. (I keep getting the error message `network cable
unplugged' --- and no clue, since it is plugged in.)
Host jackie (MDK 9.1) can ping the server and gets responses
just fine, but nothing else works yet. I tried a browser to
http://behne.us (which should work within my localnet,) but it gets a
`can't connect' message.
