Will you appreciate it as much if I call you an idiot first :-) ?

Have you applied the network address 207.224.76.204 to the external interface 
of the firewall, so that it receives packets for that address ?

You either want to do:

ifconfig eth0:1 217.224.76.204 netmask w.x.y.z

or use the ip command from the iproute2 package if you have this on your 
system (can't quote you the syntax as I don't use it myself).

By the way, if this solves your problem, I don't think you were an idiot.

If you've already done this, and the problem turns out to be something else, 
then I'll wait before deciding :-)

 

Antony.
