Why don't you have any forwarding rules? Don't you need to have a
masquerade rule in there? That's how masquerade gets activated!
If you simply have ip_forwarding turned on, without any masq rules
active, then your masq box is simply forwarding the un-masqueraded IP
addresses directly to the Internet. That works fine, but when a system
wants to reply back to that system, it can't route its way back, because
your LAN is using unrouteable private IP addresses. That's what
masquerading is for in the first place. :)
