The network is a simply a connection to a second computer from my 
computer via ethernet Eth1 to windows
machine.It uses DHCP and has worked perfectly up till now,for what it's 
worth ,my Iptables
 has internal network as 192.168.0.0 Eth1 is 192.168.0.1.
Could my problem be a corrupted DHCP. How do I reconfigure Eth1.
