You would more than likely want the nic on machine2 to be on the 10.x.x.x subnet for this configuration. Afterwards, you should at least be able to ping your internal interface on machine1 from machine2 (It looks like you're allowing it in your IPFW rules...). Once you can ping.. (or begin to see traffic on the internal interface in the logs for IPFW), you can start troubleshooting the IPFW rules, if necessary.
