So, the firewall needs to allow 192.168.1.0/24 addresses to connect to 
192.168.0.0/24 but not the other way round.

Doesn't look good.

Looks as bad as the first idea, with only one interface.

What is wrong with yur laptop havign just one IP address (that *is* 
conventional, after all), and the firewall allowing it to "monitor" addresses 
in the other subnet?   Perhaps you should explain more about what you mean by 
"monitor"?

> Any ideas

Yes.   Have two subnets with separate address ranges, a firewall in between, 
and allow one subnet to connect to the other, but not the other way round.

eg:
eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
eth1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

iptables -P FORWARD DROP
iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -j ACCEPT

Antony.
