Thanks for triggering my memory Kevin. When I was researching IPTables, I saw lots of PROC modules for allowing Warcraft, Unreal, etc. to work - I think I saw one for Starcraft as well. I don't think it was specific to IPtables or IPChains, but could be wrong....

I'm no firewalling genius, but I think what happened is that IPtables does a better job of passing related traffic than IPchains. My guess is that your problem will lie there. I would recommend googling for a starcraft masq module. You may need one, and then you'll be set. There are docs on how to install additional modules on the ipcop.org site.
