We don't know what your script looks like so it's going to be hard. If you can not ping from the firewall to the PC's then you should be allowing INPUT traffic from your lan and OUTPUT traffic from the firewall. Reading the above it seems to me that forwarding doesn't have anything to do with this. Not much more one can say without the rules. Gr, Rob
