Maybe it's just me, but why would you need to have machines outside your firewall, yet still need to run iptables on them? If it has something to do with IP allocation, why not just add one more segment to the firewall and create a bridge? I'm not trying to suggest that you don't complement your security by running firewalls on the linux hosts, but it would be in your best interests to take advantage of PF wherever possible (IMHO).
