As I told you If _some_ internal hosts start pinging one external host, 
everyone gets their proper answer. They are not going to receive all the 
icmp replies. Everyone receives his reply. Use

natd -v

to figure out


Here is a snip:

Out [ICMP] [ICMP] 192.168.???.130 -> 192.108.???.43 8(0) aliased to
            [ICMP] 193.92.???.26 -> 192.108.???.43 8(0)
In  [ICMP] [ICMP] 192.108.???.43 -> 193.92.???.26 0(0) aliased to
            [ICMP] 192.108.???.43 -> 192.168.???.130 0(0)



Make some experiments with

natd -v

and you will understand this.
