You shouldn't need the ipmasq package, NAT has been built into iptables for
ages.
A rule like this should do the trick:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d $external-ip --dport $external-port \
-j DNAT --to $internal-ip:$internal-port
You will probably need a rule like this as well:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $external-ip -s $internal-ip -j MASQUERADE
$internal-ip in the last one can be changed to the network range, and will
allow general NAT for that network.
