The only way I know of how to do this is using redirect_port
with natd. I have searched myself for something like this
myself, but most programs that I have run into were fixed
with redirect_port.

What you do is make a conifg file in /etc for natd (ie: /etc/natd.conf)
and have the ports you need to redirect in there.
This is one I have for IRC:
redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.11:1024 1024
(note: you need to have more of those for more transfers, each
port higher than the other)

And you can configure mirc for windows to use certain ports
so that it doesn't conflict with the ports of the other
computers you have on your lan.

Hope this helps.
