Hi Group,

I am trying to deploy a VPN solution and ran into a seemingly simple problem 
which I cant seem able to resolve. I terminated the radio link from the ISP 
on fa0/0 of my Cisco 2621 router. I connected fa0/1 of 2621 to e0/0, the 
outside of my PIX 506 by cross cable and connected e0/1, the inside of PIX 
to LAN switch. The inside network has address 10.240.77.0/24 and the VPN is 
between Exchange server at 10.240.77.3 and the larger 10.240.0.0 network. 
The ISP has assigned me the following IP addresses 66.135.55.171, .172, .173 
and .174 from a subnet with mask 255.255.255.192. So I assigned .171 to 
fa0/1 - inside of 2621, .172 to e0/0 - outside of PIX, .173 as global on PIX 
for PAT and reserved .174 for a future VG.

I wanted to put the config thru its paces by pinging round the PIX. For 
testing, I had entered on the PIX:

conduit permit ICMP any any
access-list aclout permit icmp any any
access-list aclin permit icmp any any
access-group aclout in interface outside

When I tried to apply aclin for outbound icmp, with the command:

access-group aclin out interface inside

the PIX responded with:

Type help or '?' for list of available commands.

When I repeated the command with ? at the end, the PIX responded with:

usage: [no] access-group  in interface  inside

It seemed the PIX only requires permitting inbound ICMP from the outside. So 
I proceeded with the pings. My output is below:

>From Router:

NB: pixout, pixin and exchange are host entries on router for PIX outside 
interface, PIX inside interface and exchange server with IP addresses 
66.135.55.172, 10.240.77.1 and 10.240.77.3 respectively.

I can ping from the router thru the PIX to the Exchange server in the inside 
network, from the PIX all around, from the Exchange to the PIX inside 
interface but not from Exchange to the PIX outside interface and to the 
router. I know it gotta be something simple, but cant seem able to figure it 
out.

The PIX is 506E version 6.1(2). I will appreciate greatly if somebody will 
just point to me what I'm missing.

TIA.
