Yes, I just verified that each client machine can ping the other.  I
then changed so that my cable modem went straight into the hub, and
then out to my linux machine and out to one of the windows machines
seperately(I have 2 legit IP's from my ISP).  This worked well also.
So this has proven all my cables work.

Here's where it get's weird.  I took the hub out of the
picture...went from from the cable modem into eth0, and then out
eth1 directly to one of the windows machines via a crossover cable,
and again everything worked just fine.  Even the windows box gets
all the way out to the internet, through the firewall, and
masqeraded and everything.  But if I switch back to going back out
to the hub, then to the 2 windows machines, everything goes back to
my original problem.  So I've proven all my hardware works.  I've
proven my masqerading works, and I can get through the firewall in
the 2 PC scenario, but why the hell does nothing work in the config
that I'm attempting?!?!  I'm going nuts here!

I feel like I must be missing something really stupid/simple, so I
feel a little better since it wasn't immediatly obvious to everyone
else.:P

Thanks for everyone's input, I'd love to hear any more idea's!
