So, just to confirm, you have


internet ---> [ broadband ] <--- net 1 ---> [ PIII/Debian ] <--- net 2 --->

where your PIII is using DHCP to get it's IP from broadband

but on net 2 it has a fixed IP and is acting as

(a) DHCP server
(b) router

and in theory should also be doing DNS forwarding?

The machines get DHCP'd and can then access the internet and each other.

Now, do your network rules disable ICMP? (eg ping uses ICMP).
