Can ping from ASL box but not from internal net

Hi, All

I spent  more then 4 hours trying to figure out what is happening with my brand new ASL 5.09 box.

I have a very typical setup with 2 NICs and NAT Masquarede.
My uplink is a cable modem provided by rogers.com the IP is assigned by their DHCP.
DNS proxy works - I can use nslookup in the internal network and  it correctly resolves names to IPs.
Packet filtering works - I allow any traffic from Internal network to the Internet, I can see in the live log that packets are moving across the firewall when I attempt to open a website.
Ping and traceroute forwarding is enabled  on the ASL box.

I can ping an external address from any NICs using WebAdmin, but I can't ping external addresses or open a website from a PC on the internal network.

Any idea what I'm missing ?

many thanks in advance

Are you using rules for HTTP, or the HTTP proxy??

Is the gateway set to Astaro on the PCs?

I use packet filetring rurules only.
HTTP proxy is not enabled at this time
The default gateway on the local server is pointing to ASL internal NIC

Issue solved!
The reason for this madness was a renamed interface.
After dropping and recreating the NAT rule everything works !
