I have more or less the same setup as you,
and I have
	net.ipv4.conf.ip_forward = 0
in /etc/sysctl like you,
but I have no problem accessing my server from my laptop.

I am running shorewall,
and it would be easy to set this up
to have the effect you describe.

I have the line
	loc             $FW             ACCEPT
in /etc/shorewall/policy .
The default is
	loc            $FW             REJECT          info
which would have the effect you describe.

Nb I don't really understand iptables,
but I find shorewall does most of the thinking for me.
