Well, for starters, you could just try explicitly enabling all packet
passing:
$IPTABLES -P INPUT ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -P FORWARD ACCEPT
Those are taken from the firewall I've got setup here, with the DROP's
changed to ACCEPT's. If you haven't, make sure `echo "1" >
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward` is done as well. You might want to set
this whole thing up in a separate shell script so you can run it over and
over until everything's right.
