Hi,

To allow the FileMaker application (client) in your LAN to connect to an 
external server at port 5000-5005, I think, you need to have an ACCEPT 
entry in the FORWARD chain, instead of the INPUT chain (in your iptables).

The image in the following link may help you in understanding the packet 
flow between various chains in iptables.

I don't have any clue about the other problems that you have mentioned. 
Let us hope for some expert to help.


Regards,
Vignesh
