Did you also

 		echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

to allow the gateway machine to forward packets?

(This needs to be done every time the machine gets started, after you're 
finished with your firewall setups. It's just a simple protection that 
machines don't start routing packets before the firewall is up).

If at some stage you want to (globally) turn forwarding off again, just do

 		echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

and it's off again...
