OK - I did that (can't believe I missed that...) :-/ However, now I have something else weird happening. I can successfully ping out to hosts that are on my "public" network (our /26 net that the ISP gives us.) However, I can't seem to get past the router, and the tracert looks weird: C:\>tracert -d 207.157.9.151 Tracing route to 207.157.9.151 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 10.227.1.1 2 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms 10.200.227.1 3 3 ms 3 ms 3 ms 10.1.2.41 4 4 ms 4 ms 4 ms 207.157.9.151 I never see either interface that is in the firewall/NAT box. It goes straight from the router that is at the core (10.1.2.41) to the "public" address on our subnet.

I have configured the Cisco router to direct all the traffic from the affected /24 subnet to the linux box, and I am trying to do a 1-to-1 NAT so we can do things like Terminal Services, etc. across the internet.
