I have build a new version of upnpd for bering.
The new version is based on linux-igd 0.90; I have also written some
instructions on how to use upnpd with shorewall. Take a look at
http://www.fastflow.it/floppinux/bering and let me know.

Your first step (removing the UPNP rule from common.def is:

a) Unnecessary -- your ACCEPT rules will be traversed well before the common chain is traversed.
b) Wrong -- You should NEVER modify the common.def file. This is pointed out in the comments at the beginning of the file and is reinforced at http://shorewall.sf.net/shorewall_extension_scripts.htm.

The 'common' chain it traversed after all rules have failed to match and before a DROP or REJECT policy is applied -- the only reason for the DROP rule for UPNP is so your log won't fill up with DROP or REJECT messages if you specify logging on your policy.
