Thanks to everyones response on this question.  Basically, the problem 
was that I had assigned both the nics on Host A IP addresses on the same 
network.  I fixed this with assigning the U5's 192.168.1.X and eth0 as 
192.168.0.1 and turned on ip forwarding on Host A.  Everything seems to 
be working as expected now.

Thanks again,
Simran H.
