Tim, check your email(s) dated sept 27th.

You asked the same question back then, and I can see that I gave a similar
reply and I remember your private message to confirm that putting the global
command solved the issue :)

Cielieska, I think before 7.2.x the 'same-security-traffic permit
intra-interface' command required at least one leg of the traffic to be VPN
traffic, but that was changed in later releases.
Now both legs can be clear-text traffics and this is exactly what Tim is
trying to achieve here.

The problem is just how Cisco PIX/ASA handles NAT (even with nat-control
disabled). Once you have a dynamic NAT on any high-security interface (lets
say inside going to outside for internet traffic), now even for inside >>
dmz communication you need to have translation rules (or exemptions). This
is documented on CCO tough:

They also have a nice diagram to explain this :)
