For ipchains I can crib from my old firewall setup-

$IPCHAINS -A input -p udp -i $EXT_IFACE -d $EXT_IP 1024: -s 0.0.0.0/0 6277 -j ACCEPT

where IPCHAINS  = path to ipchains binary
      EXT_IFACE = my external interface
      EXT_IP    = my external IP

The above rule assumes that the firewall machine itself is running
the dcc client.  You'll need to adjust if your clients are behind
the firewall (change $EXT_IP, possibly use forwarding chain instead
of input chain).
