Firewall stopping detection?

I have just install snort from Debian Unstable, and customised the config 
file to suit my system. I then went to grc.com and used the probe my ports 
thing, to see if snort would detect it, but I get nothing in the logs. I have 
a firewall using ipchains, which blocks all connections except for stuff 
iniated from inside. How do i get snort to still detect attack attempts 
coming in? Thanks,

David
