There are two sides.  You need to accept the packets coming in to
dhcps, as well as the ones going out to dhcpc.  There are a number
of different ways to do this, but make sure you keep it limited to
the interface on which you intend to supply these addresses.

Not necessarily, no.  The kinds of state being kept are quite
different, and there isn't any particular relationship between
them.  In fact, it's a lot more difficult to use stateful rules
with natd running, because the packets match differently depending
on whether they've been NAT'd already or not.
