You might want to have a look at www.webmin.com it contains webinterfaces for all kinds of daemons and configs, including dhcpd and itpables. It might be easier and more worthwhile for you if you create a webmin plugin (haven't tried it, but I reckon it's easier than starting from scratch). In any case, good luck with it and let us know how it's coming along.
