Is the default gateway ok? It points to 192.168.1.1 which is on a private
LAN connected to eth2.
I should have said in the original post. This is
a lab behind an existing firewall. The 'Internet'
in the topo drawing is a pretend Internet. The
real Internet connection is on the other side of
192.168.1.1 (the 'inside-net').
And if you want to ping from the lan to internet, you will need to do SNAT
(masquerading). You need a rule like this :
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
I needed that syntax anyway :)

You can use tcpdump. Or an iptables rule with -j LOG and see what appears in
the logs.
tcpdump is not installed on this box. And the
iptables rules are disabled. In other words they
are all set to accept. If I use the iptables
command you suggest, will it actually log
anything?
Thanks,
kelly
