Hi,

have you set up a nat rule for your internal ip address range? If not, you need to
map them to your 'official' ip address.
Using ipnat that rule would look like:
map [external interface] [internal ip range] -> 0.0.0.0/32

if you're using natd check the manual for the corresponding rule.

cheers,
	tom
