I had this same problem with a standard Linux/IPChains setup. Turns out that Oracle embeds the local address of the server in the data portion of the packet. The client then grabs the IP address from the data portion of the packet rather than IP header and attempts to converse with the private address (192.168.x.x) even though the FW NATs the IP headers properly - see the Oracle USENET groups and Oracle site for more info on this. Basically, until Oracle changes this functionality you cant NAT Oracle servers.
