Things to check:

Can you ping that host from its own connected interface?  If yes, then
you know that ethernet segment is good.  If not, look on the 10.0.0.0/24
segment.  

The next thing that I would check is the netmask and gateway on the 
10.0.0.115 host.  If it is the classful mask of 255.0.0.0, then the
host will assume that the ping sourced from 10.0.10.1 is local, and not
forward it to the gateway.  Make sure that the host has 10.0.0.250 
as its default gateway.  

Is the 10.0.10.1 interface up and up?

Why do you have directed-broadcast enabled?  It isn't generally useful
and not recommended on a production system for security reasons (Smurf
amplifier.)

The router config looks OK at first glance, I'd suspect a netmask or 
gateway problem at the host if it's pingable from its connected interface, 
and a physical layer problem if it is not.
