what is OKPORTS? it should be allowed everything except IRC access, so what should I write there?


No, rather than allowing everything but some ports... this firewall denies everything but the ports you specify.

what is VEID?


A VEID is your Virtual Environment Identifier... or the number of your VPS.

Quote:

should I create such file for every VPS? or can I do it globally?


You create a separate file for each VPS... that way you can have different firewall rules (allowing the needed services) for each VPS.

Quote:

OPENPORTS: as I said, everything is open except IRC access, what should I write there?


Again, it is a deny everything except for what is allowed type of firewall.

Quote:

DMZS: I dont understand again, every ip is allowed


That is so you can specify IPs or ranges of IPs where your firewall doesn't block them.

Quote:

BANNED: what? every ip is allowed


This is if you want to ban an IP or range of IPs from all services even those you have allowed.

Sorry if Im too lame:( Smile


Just try it... and play with it... and hopefully it'll make more sense to you. I'm not sure why I have to explain all of this to you... because I thought most of it was explained on the wiki page.
