    Is there a support list for that firewall script? You probably won't find a
    lot of people here running it, so targeting the script's list would be more
    effective for getting help.

    Meanwhile, if it's not too big, you could post the output of "iptables -L
    -v" and "iptables -t nat -L -v". Those dump the firewall tables for the
    regular and NAT rules. Inspecting that output should give you insight into
    what's failing. (I use the output from iptables-save, but it's a bit terse,
    lacking the formatting and the protocol and DNS names.)
