With the help of Alexandre and others I have gotten one system almost
working, except for dhcp. The system runs firestarter which provides
the firewall on eth1 and dhcp on eth0 for my home network. I have the
following kernel errors:

The dhcp.leases~ has the following properties:
-rw-r--r-- root root system_u:object_r:dhcpc_state_t
/var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases~
eth0 seems to be running and configured fine but the kernel is not
recognizing the Input from it? ifconfig of eth0 is:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:4C:20:EB:C3
inet addr:192.168.0.1 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::2e0:4cff:fe20:ebc3/64 Scope:Link

eth1 receives it's dhcp fine and I can access the Internet, e-mail, etc
but I can't use this PC as my firewall yet as it the dhcp is somehow
blocked. PC's connected to it recognize that there is a network but no
actual communication occurs.
I tried Googling with no success and haven't seen any similar messages
on the list. Any ideas on how I can get this working?
