Sam, Addressing your questions in order:
1) Yes, some people do use publically routable addressing within their enterprise, but it's considered very Bad Practice. It will bite them when someone tries to access an Internet resource that legitimately owns those addresses. Instead of traffic being routed out to the Internet, it will be routed to the Internal network with the bad addresses, and the Public resource will appear unavailable. 2) You can configure a PIX to act in the manner you're describing. Basically, you'd connect and address the PIX interfaces to their respective network segments, do a static NAT translation for the 10.1.1.0 network (Translate the 10.1.1.0/24 network space to 10.1.1.0/24 from the inside to the outside... Seems silly, but your PIX will work a lot better if you do this.), and create a rule that permits all ip traffic from the outside to the inside network.
