There is probably a simple solution to this, but I think I've wrapped
myself up in my underwear and can't see my way <sigh>

I'm trying to get to web sites on my DMZ from other machines on my DMZ, by
using the external IP.  This fails with a timeout error.


I'm running a 3-interface Shorewall 3.2.6 on Debian 5.x Stable (It's
worked great for years, so I haven't touched it!)  My web site has an
external IP address, which forwards to my server on the DMZ.  I can access
the web sites perfectly from my "loc" systems by referencing the external
IP address.  However, I __cannot__ do the same from within the DMZ. 
Trying to access them from within the DMZ leads to a timeout error.  By
specifying the actual IP address within the DMZ, I am able to access the
web site, but not by using the external IP.

Is it possible to use the external IP address to bounce back into the DMZ?


Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions for troubleshooting.  I've
enclosed my shorewall dump.
