Question: My Windows-PC has a connection to the Internet through Masquerading on my Linux-Server...
Now my problem is, that i can't join any Internet-game. Which port(s) does the game use, so i can forward them to the Windows-PC ?

I can answer that...
The only way you would get internet muliplayer in SMAC is if you have the warez version. You are pretty stupid to come here asking for help.
Besides the warez version are probably a hacked beta, so who knows what bugs it contains.
There definetly is no support from FIRAXIS

Besides, it should be pretty easy to figure out what ports the program use. Hint: netstat.
