Unhappy Help with Firewall stuff


I'm runing Mandrake 9.1 with two net cards, one connecting to the Comcast Cable modem (eth0) and one to the Interal HUB (eth1) running DHCP to 3 other Windows boxes on the network.

I guess Mandrake sets up "shorewall" for connection sharing... I did that part through the GUI just to get DHCP up, running, and sharing connection to the rest of the network...

Anyways, I really have no need for a firewall, but when shorewall is stoped, so is the internet connection to everyone connected to eth1. It's blocking ports to Planetside and lots of other games.

Is there a way to set it up to allow all ports and still have DHCP access on the rest of the network?

Please keep in mind, I'm fairly good with Linux in general but this Firewall and DHCP stuff is new to me. Here is my output from /sbin/iptables -L
