I'm using Debian, which requires a change to the file
/etc/network/options with a line reading:

         ip_forward=yes

That's a good guess, though, since the kind of non-response I get is
exactly as though the packets were being lined up against the wall and
shot by some piece of sentinel software gone berserk.
