Destination not reachable until destination pings source! PIX501

Hi folks,

I posted this earlier and haven't received any answers so I'm posting it
again in case I've missed anyone.

I have...

Server
193.195.10.2
|
SWITCH
|
193.195.10.1 outside
PIX 501
192.168.10.3 inside
|
|
SWITCH (DMZ)---------192.168.10.2 Server
|
|
192.168.10.1 outside
PIX 501
192.168.0.0 inside
|
SWITCH (INTERNAL)
|
192.168.0.10
Server

all routing is correct, there is no NAT, and all acl's are set to permit
anything from anything to anything.

Now the problem is this...

if I try to ping from 192.168.10.2 to a destination of 192.168.0.10 it times
out
if I then ping from 192.168.0.10 to a destination of 192.168.10.2 it works
then if I ping from 192.168.10.2 to a destination of 192.168.0.10 it works.
If I reboot 192.168.10.2 it fails again until I ping it from 192.168.0.10.

If I reboot 193.195.10.2 it fails again until I ping it from 192.168.0.10.

can it be some sort of wierd timeout or arp on the PIX's when packets are
coming from external

thanks
