"the second ethernet is not reading the second computer" -- what do you mean by this?

RE: HELP in Linux

The gateway is reading one of the computers on the network. This has two network cards. eth0 is connected to one computer and is working fine. however eth1 is not sending any packets and keeps saying that the other computer on the network is unreachable.

Did you enable IP forwarding?
Code:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
for f in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter ; do echo 1 > $f ; done

Failing that, what are your routing tables?
