Is forwarding enabled? See what's in the file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward. It
should be 1. If it's 0, then do this: echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.
If that was the problem, then you can enable forwarding at boot time by making
sure the line FORWARD_IPV4=true is in the file /etc/sysconfig/network.
