this is our real firewall so it's not that simple.

ok so the full story, that it's our dmz zone and the firewall is the real
firewall. until now there is only public ip address in this zone. but now
would like to put a new machine with virtulization. and for the dom0 (in
xen terminology) or hardware node (in openvz) i'd to give the private
address while in the virtual server on it use public address (to not waste
our public ip address). so the hypervizor don't have to access to any
other machine in the network just to the firewall. i hope this clrear the
setup. this machine works in the internal lan and now we connected it to
the dmz after that this happend. i assume there is no hardware problem
since if i ping from the new server the firewall and run the tcpdump _on_
the firewall then i've got the above result, so i assume threre is at
least etherenet level communications. but i'll check the hardwares
tomorrow.
yours.
