Terry,

When you say, "t these packets already covered by other lines in the 
configuration?," What lines of the configuration are you talking about?

FW-OUT->IN passes icmp echo but does not inspect it.

FW-IN->OUT passes the echo-reply since it wasn't inspected on the way in.

FW-IN->OUT also inspects ICMP echo as it leaves and the return should be 
allowed without specifying echo-reply in the FW-OUT->IN policy.

Is this what you are speaking about?

Regards,
