Ok, I think I understand this a little better now. Say my private
network is 192.168.1.0/24 and my dmz is 192.168.2.0/24. I already have
the static (inside,dmz) 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
which is required in 6.3(3). So, in order to make this work i.e the
inside network has access to everything on the dmz network and the dmz
network can access the internet and I only allow specific
communication from the dmz to the inside I need to do the following:

access-list dmz permit udp host 192.168.2.2 host 192.168.1.202 eq domain
access-list dmz permit tcp host 192.168.2.2 host 192.168.1.203 eq smtp
access-list dmz deny ip 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
access-list dmz permit ip 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 any

I will also need to add the nonat statements as was suggested by Brandon:

access-list nonat permit ip 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0
access-list nonat permit ip 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
nat 0 (inside) access-list nonat
nat 0 (dmz) access-list nonat

My only concern here is the 3rd line in the dmz access-list and
whether it will deny communication from the inside network to the dmz
(except dns and smtp), but I will test that when I get home tonight.

Thank you for everyone's help.

Brian
