This is probably already possible, you'll need to be able to identify
the <insert your favourite game here> packets by port address. So if
you've got a Quake server on 10.0.0.2:5000 (internal) and a gateway on
10.0.0.1 (internal) and 1.2.3.4 (external) with natd/ppp -alias
running, you'd have an entry in your ppp.conf saying
alias port udp 10.0.0.2:5000 5000
Having said that, I've never gotten around to looking at the traffic
that quake sends around the place, so I'm not sure that it has an
identifyable port number.
