Here's what I use:

In /etc/arno-iptables-firewall/firewall.conf:

NAT_FORWARD_TCP="
...
22001>~22
"

This says "take incoming connections on port 22001 to my external port 
and map them onto 22."  I then block port 22 from outside as a way of 
discouraging brute-force password attacks or DoS attacks (that would 
fill up the listen queue).
