DD-wrt, DynDNS and FTP, oh my!

Hi guys! I've been wanting to set up an FTP server on my home computer for when I'm out and about, so I set up DynDNS, which works fine! Except right now my DynDNS link points to my router and I want it to point to the computer behind the router (one particular out of a couple).

Does anybody know how to set something like this up in DD-wrt, which I am running? DD-WRT v24-sp2 (05/08/09) micro-plus-ssh to be specific.

    While I'm not familiar with DD-WRT, in the stock Linksys firmware all you do is set up port forwarding (under Applications & Gaming) for the service and the corresponding PC it's running on. So let's say you set your FTP server on 192.168.1.103, you would forward port 21 requests (assuming you're using the standard FTP port) to 192.168.1.103.

    Edit:
    DD-WRT.com     seems to have pretty good guide for setting it up.
