router firewall reject local domain-connections

[Angelo]

This better explains it, if you're outside the router and you can ping
devices inside the LAN, than the router is functioning fine as you
told it - if you can't ping devices INside the LAN, then I'd say that
the internal network/devices are miss-configured. To narrow down
further, perhaps we need more information - how further are you
configured inside?
(ie. Internet => Router => Server (eth0)...
Server (eth0) => Server (eth1) => switch => devices)???

I have the same type of setup but don't have those issues, but please
diagram for us (or me, since I'm a RH9 user and maybe 8 is way
different).
