My best guess is that your iptables are still configured to drop
incoming packets. At one time I configured my iptables by hand, but in
recent years I've felt life is just too short. My suggestion would be
to install one of the firewall packages available under ubuntu (I
actually do a lot of my configuration using webmin; firewalling is one
of the many things it can configure), and then turn it off using that
package's configuration tool.
