No, because you are dealing with pre-routing. The accept is typically used as destination for the packet if it is not being otherwise processed. The problem that you may be having is that you have not initialized your nic with all of the external ip-addresses. eth0:0 for the first one, and eth0:1 for the next in line etc. Eth0 is the interface, and the :X indicates all of the locations for the ipaddresses. A friend of mine has done what you are trying to do on his ip-tables. I can see if he wants to share his set-up with us. The only problem is he is out of town until next Monday. Let me know if you want me to pursue this angle.
