PS: I forgot to mention in my previous reply that by the time I got to the bottom of your ruleset, I hadn't seen a single DROP or REJECT rule, therefore your "Firewall" is not blocking anything :-) With a default ACCEPT policy explicitly set on the FORWARD chain, and without changing the implicit default ACCEPT policy on the INPUT and OUTPUT chains, your netfilter rules are not actually doing anything at all, except for the address translation :-) Antony. -- There are two possible outcomes.
