from man 8 dhcrelay:

       The -i flag can be used to specify the network interfaces on which
       the relay agent should listen.   In general, it must listen  not
       only  on those  network  interfaces  to which clients are attached,
       but also on those network interfaces to which  the  server  (or
       the  router that reaches  the  server)  is attached.

you only specified one interface--i'm guessing the one that the client
is on.  try using simply:

  dhcrelay adept.mgr

unless you have a reason to exclude some interfaces.

also--what does this have to do with netfilter?
