I was hoping somebody here can help me with an easy issue I am facing. I am directly connecting two ASA 5505 devices on their outside ports and plan on creating a VPN tunnel. However I am running into problems even before I configure the VPN.

I ran the initial factory config then configured the IP addresses as follows:

ASA1 (outside): 10.128.84.101
ASA1 (inside): 10.179.5.254
comp1 (inside) : 10.179.5.5

ASA2 (outside): 10.128.86.9
ASA2 (Inside): 10.179.1.254
comp2 (inside) : 10.179.1.5

At the moment I have them both connected on eth0/0 which is the outside interface configured on VLAN 2. Before I configre the VPN tunnel I want to be able to ping between the two computers on the opposite inside interfaces, however I can't seem to get this to happen. I tried to configure static routes but nothing seems to work.

I pasted my config below, I would appreciate any help.
