Solved !!! Thanks much Jeff for helping out and getting me on the right
path.
It's as you suspected, the router didn't know about the 10.0.0.0 network
so I had to have the proxy server sumida do NAT in order to convert from
the 192.168.2.0 network to the 10.0.0.0 network. Probably obvious to
some, but not to me in my first attempt at this.
Since I've had my router assign a fixed IP of 192.168.2.150 to sumida's
first NIC, I've gone with SNAT for the setup. And once that was
decided, the key entry for iptables was ...
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to ${NAT}
... with $NAT being 192.168.2.150 (the NIC connection to the internet).
Again, thanks for your help.
Kevin
