Well, not having direct experience with the Linksys, this is only a guess,
but are these ports being blocked at the router? On the SmoothWall box I
set up this weekend (see other post), there are two steps to a successful
port forward; first you set up the forwarding itself, then you tell the
router to allow connections on that port. The former without the latter
accomplishes nothing, as the packets never arrive to be forwarded.

Perhaps something similar is going on there.
