dunno about bonding...might be important.

just to clarify a point--the services your trying to connect to *are*
running locally on the machine running netfilter, correct?  the only
reason i ask, is because the comment "Open ports on router for
server/services" leads me to believe that "router" and "server" are two
different machines.  if "server" is behind "router" you should be using
FORWARD filter rules, not INPUT...

anyways...at this point--i'd recommend:

  iptables -A INPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "FW DROP IN: "
  iptables -A OUTPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "FW DROP OUT: "
  iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG --log-prefix "FW DROP FWD: "

and then "tail -f /var/log/messages" and try to connect.  the logs will
tell you why the firewall is dropping the traffic.
