mythtv and jaunty

Since most of my 'puters are now ubuntu based, I thought I'd run myth on 
jaunty.  Of course that means that I have to relearn stuff (or in my 
case, learn...).

I have two hdhomerun tuners connected on eth1 thru a small gbit switch.  
The outside world is on eth0.  For the life of me I cannot ping the 
tuners, even if I turn off the firewall.

I have heard that NetworkManager is evil for this sort of thing, so I 
uninstalled it and gnome-network-manager.

The contents of /etc/network/interfaces is:

auto lo eth0 eth1
iface lo inet loopback


iface eth0 inet dhcp
    post-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.up.rules

iface eth1 inet static
    address 192.168.3.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    broadcast 192.168.3.255
    network 192.168.3.0

Does that seem ok?

dhcpd.conf has:

# HD_Home_Run
subnet 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    authoritative;
    option broadcast-address 192.168.3.255;
    range 192.168.3.2 192.168.3.99;
    }

Temporarily, I have disabled my firewall.

Is there something obviously wrong here?  What can I provide that will 
shed some more light on this.

I can ping 192.168.3.1, but not anything above that, *.2, or *.3, etc.

Thanks for any and all tips...
