Network not working with Debian and Real Time Kernel 3.1...



I'm running Debian w/ kernel 2.4.18 and real-time Linux v. 3.1.  The kernel compiles without problems, but on two completely different computers, the network does not function properly.
 
Within the pix firewall at our location, only ssh works into and out of the computers (ping works also, and resolving names works).  I can ftp to other machines within our firewall, but I have no access to anything beyond the firewall.
 
As soon as I move the computer out of the firewall (on the dmz) the machines behave normally.  The only way I can access the outside world from within  the pix firewall is using a proxy.
 
Other (different) machines are configured with the same kernel and real time linux, and they work fine inside the firewall (ie, they can communicate with everyone beyond the firewall).   
 
Is this an ethernet card driver since the other mahines work from within the firewall?  One machine is running an eepro100 and the other is running a 3c59x.  I've tried swapping out cards, but this will not resolve the problem.  Am I perhaps configuring the kernel improperly?
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
