I've attached it. Let me know if you have any questions.

A few notes:

- internet link is ppp0, local network is eth0
- local network is on a 10.0.0.0 subnet
- I use IFB to shape ingress traffic
- edit DOWNLINK and UPLINK variables as required
- You'll need to patch your kernel for connlimit and ipset (if you want
p2p detection)
- I also use Squid as a transparent web cache. Take those rules out if
you don't need them.
