1. Can you be more specific about exactly what problems you are having - what
does work, what does not work, how are you testing it?

Since i have made some changes i don't get an connection to my VPN Server, it seems that iptables don't forwards the vpn tunnel to my internet vpn server.

i can't send any pings to the internet?

also i can't connect to my Terminalserver.

I think the whole forwading don't works?

2. Is it possible that you can simplify your ruleset by removing rules which
are nice to have, but have nothing to do with this problem (eg: the rate-limited DROP rules, and the TCP flag matches), so that it is easier to

know what to focus on, and what is unimportant?

I think i have to write a complete new firewall script, but at first i will try to get all working what i need.

Thanks Peter

What did you change?

If it did work before you made the changes, then I think knowing what you changed will point quite quickly to the problem.

Start simple and add things as you need, don't try to fix something which is both complicated and broken.
