I know this sounds incredibly pedantic, but if you run nmap on the slave and scan the master, and it says the ports are open, then you don't have a firewall issue. The "netstat" output is independent of the firewall.

You should see something like this in /var/log/daemon.log on the slave (and on the master, but you said that was shutting down already):

upsmon[1234]: Communications with UPS sdrups at 192.168.0.7 established

Once that connection is up, you can run "sudo upsmon -c fsd" on the master to simulate a power failure (to avoid running down the batteries too much). Note that this will shut down the master system, too. Details are in the upsmon man page.
