Masqurading Flash player traffic?

My little SoHo lan server is a 1.5gig Athlon machine with two nic's.
Eth0 is connected to a dsl modem and eth1 serves the lan with ip # 192.168.1.1

Mozilla 1.4.1 and flashplayer plugin flash-plugin-6.0.79-2 run *perfectly* on
that machine. 

My workstation upstairs is another 1.5gig athlon machine with ip 
# 192.168.1.2. Nothing that I do will get the flash plugin to respond, 
on that machine.

I put these commands in rc.local for the firewall running on 192.168.1.1,
it is the standard firewall Fedora sets up on installation, set to high
security.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j MASQUERADE

Fowarding works fine for everything except flashplayer.
Is there something more that needs to be done to get flash-player traffic 
forwarded to the lan (192.168.1.2) ?
