Another small sugestion: Look at your iptables configuration file (not a gui). Here there is an example of a well configured mask in my iptables file:
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s 55.66.77.0/24 -j ACCEPT

I tried your suggestions without success. ip-up.local is executable in a bash console and if I do so, I get this message: "iptables v1.3.5: invalid mask '255' specified Try 'iptables -h' for more information. A subent mask of 255? In my opinion it should be something like
<address>/24 or 255.255.255.0. Seems to me that your settings are not correct, firestarter doesn't know your subnet mask.

That message is what I don't understand. My subnet is declared correctly, I even went back and checked. Firestarter says it starts but doesn't seem to enable NAT because nothing behind the firewall can reach the internet.
Small suggestion - check that you haven't inadvertantly typed a ',' instead of a '.'
