This did work, yes! Thanks! I am experiencing a new problem, though: it took an extremely long time for the connection to go through. Once it connected, it runs at normal speed, but it took a good 30 or 40 seconds for ssh to prompt me for my password. What could be causing this? I am guessing it is some sort of routing issue?

Ah no. It's either reverse DNS or ident that trips you up. Ethereal is your friend, look what goes on "at the wire".

I am not sure... but maybe your script blocks the DNS service...
Try it on your firewalled server and on a client behind the firewall...
(host www.netfilter.org  AND   nslookup www.netfilter.org)

So I think the problem was that traffic was not able to flow back out over the connection from within the firewall. I set up a ne rule allowing all packets from the internal NIC to head out over the external NIC, regardless of type or state, and that cleared up the problem instantly. Thanks again for all the help, everyone!
