yuk !, but when I've had similar problems I've tried to telnet from the FW
itself to the workstation, this has helped identify routing type problems.

Okay, I've setup NAT lots and lots of times, but this problem is driving
me crazy. I setup an SMTP server on an NT workstation for testing
purposes. I setup address translation on the FW for that machine.
However, when I try to telnet to port 25 from the outside world, nothing
happens. I look in the firewall logs, and it says it accepted the
connection. Furthermore, when I telnet out from the workstation in
question, the source address is the valid (translated) address. So
translation seems to be working, at least outgoing.
As a test, I pointed the valid address to another internal IP. After I
did that, I could telnet to port 25 just fine from the outside world. I
switch it back, and nada. The problem might be the workstation, except
... when I telnet to port 25 from the internal network, it works just
fine.
Any ideas?
