If you connect to the IP of your router using a browser, it should bring up a configuration page. In there, there should be an option for port forwarding. Just put in the information (port number, internal IP to forward to, etc.), apply the settings, and that should do it.

Actually, it should be set as the gateway on the settings on your Mac. Check in System Preferences-->Network and look at the TCP/IP settings for your ethernet connection. whatever IP is listed as your gateway is the addfress for your router. By default, most linksys devices default to 192.168.1.1.
