You do have all your Routes Defined on all machines and routers? Last does
that machine in question have it routes defined on it "route 10.x.x.x/x"?
Only other thing you can do is start from scratch. Save all your rules and
add them one at a time. If you can't have it off the network reduce the
rules to a bare minimum. Are the switches configured correct?
