I think the most likely cause is that Vuurmuur needs a kernel module to be loaded that is not loaded by default. The netfilter guys made some changes in this area recently, and Vuurmuur isn't updated to this yet. Try adding 'xt_tcpudp' to the variable 'MODULES_TO_LOAD' in /etc/init.d/vuurmuur and see how it goes (you can also manually load this module with 'modprobe xt_tcpudp'). If it doesn't work, please send me the debuglog from a failed startup.
