XP routing problem

[jmics]

I have a routing problem that I need to resolve, which involves three XP machines and three networks.

The WKA1 machine is on the 192.168.2.0 network, with an IP of 192.168.2.21 and a gateway of 192.168.2.1
The WKB1 machine is on the 192.168.3.0 network, with an IP of 192.168.3.21 and a gateway of 192.168.3.1
The XP-R machine has three interfaces, one in each of the above networks, and one in the 192.168.1.0 network
The IP 192.168.2.1 has a gateway of 192.168.1.150
The IP 192.168.3.1 has a gateway of 192.168.1.150
The IP 192.168.1.150 has a gateway of 192.168.1.1

The XP-R machine has routing enabled.

The WKA1 machine can ping 192.168.3.1 and 3.21, and 1.150, but not 1.1
The WKB1 machine can ping 192.168.3.1 and 3.21, and 1.150, but not 1.1
The XP-R machine can ping 192.168.2.21, 192.168.3.21 and 192.168.1.1

The message in the failing pings is "Request timed out"

It seems that I need to make changes to the routing table on XP-R, but I am not sure what.

Here is output from ROUTE PRINT on all three machines.

Do you have a 3rd part firewall, or different windows firewall settings on XP-R than the other 2 machines? I know that firewalls - at least some of them - have ways they drop incoming packets from other machines. So in that case, if it's dropping packets, you won't be able to ping it from other machines, yet it'll be able to find the others 2 just fine.

Is Internet-Sharing enabled on the XP-R machine? (Other Computers can use this computer to access the Internet)

Let me ask you this, what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
