Hi Justin,
When you ping, you use the ICMP protocol.
When A pings B, A sends ICMP echo-request (number 8) to B, and B sends ICMP
echo-reply (number 0) back to A.
The PIX does not allow ICMP traffic to come from the outside to the inside,
so to change that, you will need to open up for ICMP number 0 (echo-reply).
The command for that is:
conduit permit icmp any any 0
This is a good way to do it, because then you allow outside devices to reply
to your request, but they are not allowed to do a PING themself. If you want
PING to work both ways, simply use this command:
conduit permit icmp any any
Hth,
Ole

Ole,
Thanks for the reply. I understand being busy. I normally try to solve
these things all on my own, but I just don't have the available time. I
spent six hours on it yesterday.

I did receive the message - I do not know why groupstudy did not.
I appologize for not getting back with you yesterday, but I am so busy these
days, as there are many projects I have to finish.
I will see if I can find a couple of minutes to read your entire e-mail from
yesterday, and help you out.
Try the [EMAIL PROTECTED] again.
Ole

Subject: Question on PIX 501
Ole,
I apologize in advance for yet another direct message. I am just wondering
if you did get the message regarding the Pix 501 as groupstudy has not.
I dislike having to message direct, but I am really scratching my head over
this, so anything help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. In a
nutshell, have you worked with a 501. If so, was it plug and play or did
you have to perform additional configurations to get it to work.
My thanks in advance for your time.
Justin Cluer
