Hi, Marc:
I believe your problem is a routing problem.
(without automatic word wrap in your email application)
I'd like to see the output of route -n from each machine.
A 'crossover' cable between the interfaces could help rule out problems with the hub.
However, your original message's 'error' indicated a routing problem and not a cable or hardware problem.
HTH, Chuck
