Hi,
two things you have to check:
1st: what is your kernelversion. In kernel 2.2.x you have to check in
network options the point ICMP-Masquerading.
2nd: you have to enable IP-FORWARDING in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward. If
there is a 1 in ip_forward your ping goes from the internal interface to
the external interface with the IP of your internal interface of your local
computer. the internet cannot do anything with this IP, because these
private IP's aren't routeable.
MfG.
