You have not shared a full extract of your firehol.conf, but it sounds
like you are using /sbin/iptables in the middle of it, which will not
work. You need to use iptables without a path to ensure you invoke the
helper. See here:
  http://firehol.sourceforge.net/commands.html?#iptables

Is there some reason you are not using the firehol redirection helpers
and a router rule? Earlier in the thread you have replied to there is
an example of using dnat and creating a router. That would be the best
way to do this with firehol in my opinion and almost exactly matches
your need (except it uses 2 hosts and changes port, too):

Hope that helps
