the arp caches of hosts on either side of the firewall should have entries for hosts on the other side though. try and ping from a host on one side of the firewall to a host on the other side of the firewall. after the ping, type "arp -an" on the host you pinged from; if you don't have an entry for the host you pinged--you have a bridge problem. if you do have an arp entry, but the ping didn't work--you have a firewall problem.
