I have some rules setup for tunneling that aren't working. When the rules are executed manually in the bash, they work fine and dont generate any errors. But when the rules are added to a script (in the case below, its iptables-persistent) they generate an error. Any idea what's happening? It's been driving me crazy for weeks and i can't find a solution anywhere. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...bles-rules.jpg The error that is generated is: Line 6 seems to have a -t table option.

He's trying to point out that you made a typo and put "29" on your POSTROUTING instead of "39"

Thanks for the help. It fixed that error but produces a new one: Bad argument at '209.141.39.x' Error occurred at line: 6 P.S. I x'd out the last for added privacy.

Ugh something broke again but now the server cant even send any outgoing data (websites fail to query). Here are my new iptables rules: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...les-rules3.png Any idea what's happening? Ive spent over a dozen hours on it and its still not working.
