Sure it will. I have security 0 on the outside and I can ping from the edge
router's inside interface to the PIX outside with no problem (even without
the permit icmp conduit). All other outside sourced pings fail, as they
should without the conduit. I will try to find the link on CCO, but I am
pretty sure that the problem is with the PIX forwarding that ping request to
the outside subnet, where it gets dropped.

The PIX will not respond to a ping to its local interface with the security
0 command in place for that interface. Make sure the DMZ interface your
trying to ping is not in security 0
