    Here are my torrent rules. I had to setup a prerouting chain which
    specified the box I wanted to run torrent on, then forward. Adding a
    IP range wouldn't work.

    Change the IP to whatever your XP box is.

    #For Torrent
    $IPT -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 6881:6889 -j DNAT
    --to 192.168.0.19:6881:6889
    $IPT -A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 6881:6889 -j ACCEPT
    $IPT -A FORWARD -p tcp --sport 6881:6889 -j ACCEPT
