So, firehol fails in exactly the same way that your hand-written script
did? That sounds suspiciously like something deeper is wrong, then,
than just an error in your firewall rules.

So, does it work with the trivial 'client all accept' firehol
configuration?

If not, can you describe how your system is connected to the Internet,
and where you are trying the tests from, in detail? Also, a copy of any
kernel messages, especially iptables log output, and a copy of a tcpdump
on your external interface would be helpful...
