    I am just doing:

    <?php query_posts("cat=1");?>
<?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?>
<?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?>

    And when i go to page 2, it shows the same first 20 posts on the first page.

    How do i do previous and next links when only showing one category on the Main page?

    Use this instead:
    <?php query_posts($query_string."&cat=1");?>

    By leaving out the query_string, you’re ignoring all the variables being set by the system. Such as which page number you’re viewing, among others.
