So, you're saying that with this configuration, you:
1] Cannot ping any hosts on the internal network
2] No internal hosts can ping the internal IP address of the g'way.

Do this for me:-
1] tail /var/log/security
2] Back-up your current ipfw ruleset - and disconnect (physically) from
the internet
3] create a new rule set that reads ipfw add allow log ip any to any
4] reload the new ruleset into place
5] Try connecting to and from other internal hosts
6] Post logs here.

Regards,

Stacey
