[NoCat] resetcmd message...nocatsplash not starting

[elesoteric]

greetings all...

trying to setup an open hotspot, on gateway pc, ubuntu
7.04 server, 2 nics...w/ eth0 going thru a switch then
to gateway router & WAN, w/ eth1 pointing to LAN
wireless/hotspot.  setup seemed fine, configed
nocat.conf w/ basic stuff for simple open wifinet, and
setup the netwrk on gateway (using webmin interface)
trying a million ways, same for the linksys wrt54g
router...and keep getting this:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i've tried every virtual routing can think of, appear
to have some/limited connectivity...can ping from a
test laptop on wireless side thru to eth1 but not to
eth0, ping thru from wireless router in to WAN gateway
router and ping thru from gateway pc back to WAN (ext)
router and out to LAN (int) router.  i am stumped
(beyond the usual) and any help/guidance/direction w/
this would be GREATLY appreciated.
