No, I should clarify that...neither iptables nor ipchains is enabled,
and masq isn't configured (obviously). I did have ipchains loaded, and
removed it thinking that could be an issue. Connectivity didn't change
either way.

Is masq required to function as a simple router? I didn't think that
was the case....
