Question IPCop VPN PortForwarding Trouble


Hey

I have a problem that has been eating me up for a few weeks now plus i've scouted the internet for answers but nothing seems to help

My problem is i have an existing Ipcop1.4.5 machine as a firewall/router and I've tried to get the VPN on the IPCop machine to work but the connection status stays "CLOSED"... so I've gone to the next solution... VPN Server on a Win2003Serv machine behind the IPCop Firewall/Routr, when I connect to the VPN server on the LAN it works but when I put the ipcop firewall into the equation...everything stops!

The IPCop machine is connected to an NetGear ADSL Router.

ADSL---->| IPCop Firewall |----->VPN Server } does not work

Laptop-------> Local LAN -----> VPN Server } works gr8


I Flushed the rulzz from the ICop machine to set all of my own rulzz starting with the VPN to the Win machine... now the problem is the routing through the IPCop Firewall to the VPN Server... I know that I must do PortForwarding on the IPCop Firewall to the WinServer... the commands that I have tried is...

iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth3 -d 10.147.8.120 --dport 1723 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth3 -d 10.147.8.120 --dport 500 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth3 -d 10.147.8.120 --dport 47 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth3 -d 10.147.8.120 --dport 51 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth3 -d 10.147.8.120 --dport 50 -j ACCEPT


eth3 is the RED side of the Server

These commands do not work... can anyone please lend a hand in thinking please???????????
