While I agree that in a working environment the machines should be on the same subnet, for sanity's sake during this investigation, I have given each of my two machines a completely different number to avoid confusion for myself and others :)
Machine 192.168.42.2 has a routing table (given by netstat -rn)

I haven't kept the earlier parts of this thread, but it looks to me like this is (part, at least) of your problem: Machine 192.168.42.2 has a routing table with a default gateway of 192.168.42.2 -- itself!! Of course, it can't reach any address not on its subnet. The gateway address should be something like 192.168.42.xx, where xx is the address of your dual-homed machine, i.e., the one on the 10.0.0.0 network as well. Jim Cunning
