I inserted the following line in my shorewall rules file:

Hoping to solve a NAT problem with my Arureus bittorrent client. I gave the
IP address as a range because I may not always be sure that 192.168.1.1
would get assigned to the particular machine running Azureus. It didn't
work - but if I just give one address ie 192.168.1.1, it does. Can I not
use a range of IP addresses in this instance?
That is not an appropriate use of a range in the DEST of a DNAT rule.
From the documentation of the DEST column:
Like in the SOURCE column, a range of IP addresses may be specified in the
DEST column as <first address>-<last address>. When the ACTION is DNAT or
DNAT-, connections will be assigned to the addresses in the range in a
round-robin fashion (load-balancing).
You need to configure your DHCP server to always give the same IP address to
the machine running Arureus.

And forward the port range to that IP only.
