ipv4 forwarding not working?

I have an ubuntu box setup with two nics: eth0 and eth1. Eth0 is a public IP. Eth0 is a private (192.168.0.0/29) network. Eth0 has dhcp on it, and distributes addresses just fine. Clients can ping the box from that network.

Clients cannot, however, ping public IP addresses like 207.69.188.185 (Earthlink DNS Servers).

I think I do not have ipv4 forwarding setup properly even though it is set to "1".

What's the problem?
