Do you really want these boxes to have ~.1.2 as their gateway? This, after all, if I have read your earlier diagram right, is the outgoing interface of the Samba PDC. I think you mean ~.1.1, your outgoing router.
I think this can be done, if you set an explicit route to ~.1.1 on each box via which ever interface of the Samba PDC it is connected.
Not correct, you need to set the default GW to the next router in the path to the internet, which in this case is the samba PC, for the subnet in use.
Agree. I was just trying to make more sense of the OP's proposal. And if it is do as I do rather than as I say, default gateway is on the same subnet as the box you are routing for. I have given the other config a quick try, and it seems to fall down on the way back from the second router. Probably it requires this router also to have a similar config, which it wont take, being a cheapy ADSL router.
