This is one of my favourites :-)
Usually that problem is caused by the rp_filter feature, which silently
drops packets that arrive on an interface answers wouldn't be routed to.
Just try
for i in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth*/rp_filter; do
echo 0 > $i
done
and see if that helps.
(indeed, you don't really need to switch it off for all of them, just
the uplink interfaces would be enough)
