Ok, you've done this:
route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 10.0.0.255 eth0
route add default gw 10.0.0.10
It seems that the box doing the firewall needs to be told to NAT for the
10.0.2/24 network. If it's a cisco, easy to do from the "enable"
login (err, if you know what you are doing :)
