Depending on how much firewall logging you've turned on, you might be
able to find some hints in /var/log/firewall. The firewall configuration
variables are all stored in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2. I hesitate to
ask the obvious, but did you perhaps make a typographical error
inputting the masqueraded net and netmask in the firewall config?

If these don't provide the clues you need to resolve the problem, please
post the variables from your firewall config file. This command:

egrep "^[^#]" /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2

will print all non-comment lines to the console (depending on the
permissions setting you chose for your system -- easy, secure, etc --
you may need to run this as root).
