Your ip_conntrack table is full. This is the table the kernel uses to track forwarded packets. To see how many connections are currently being tracked :
sysctl net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_max
It should be safe to double the number:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_max=2x
Should that not cause any problems edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add the following line:
net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_max=2x
This will make the change permanent should you need to reboot the box.
