TOR - How can I get this privacy software to work behind a router?

[youngtomedison]

I'm behind a hardware firewall (i.e. router), and I cannot seem to get port-forwarding set properly for this anonymizing program to do its thing properly. The instructions on the TOR pages are not clear enough for a recovering Windoze user like me to understand.

Are there any TOR users here who can help? Thanks.

So have you used these instructions (http://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en) to set it up??

As for port-forwarding, that's normally a function of the router, and would show up in your route as a gateway.
8:31PM # route /home/knute (root)
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
8:31PM # /home/knute (root)

In this example, my router is at ip 192.168.1.1, and has a separate ip for the internet.

Alright, so what part of the instructions are unclear for you?
