    I got it working. I'd forgotten to turn ip forwarding on. Been 4 years
    since I turned it on last time lol. My iptables script works. I knew
    something else was up when I flushed everything and just created
    default policies to ACCEPT and it still didn't.

    Once ip forwarding was turned on all is well.

    Gonna go to bed now. Tomorrow I tackle configuring my web server and
    samba and then hopefully start getting mysql up and running.

    Xwindows is fubar'd but I changed runlevel to 3 for now. I'll tackle
    it later. I see that some issues with i810 are known so I'll do some
    research.
