Can someone help me?

Im using Redhat 5.0.  We have two small lans.  NOT, and NEVER will be 
connected to the Internet.  So dont mind the spoof IP numbers!

I finally figured out why I could not see beyond the ppp server.  I did not 
enable IPv4FOWARD in /etc/default/sysconfig.  
I also set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to "1"

Now I can see every machine on both sides of the lan.  but something strange 
is happening.  first, I cannot resolve any names, I can only use ip numbers.  
Second, when I ran a "traceroute" from the ppp server, 
I got a wierd error..  (I included it)

could someone PLEASE just check out my setups, make sure I did not miss
something obvious!  

THANKS ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
