I don't know what version of LEAF you are using - but Dachstein and its
predecessors block private ips by default. In Dachstein you can just
comment out the line that denies these
It is in /etc/ipfilter.conf - under stopmartians procedure
# RFC 1918/1627/1597 blocks
third line down just comment it
$IPCH -A $LIST -j DENY -p all -s 192.168.0.0/16 -d 0/0 -l $*
save it svi network reload
if that makes everything work then backup etc to the floppy.
