I love killing floor and play it a lot. But now and than I want to play the map- stalker or something, so I try to host a game. And every time, 1 no one joins (which I guess is expected, you need a few players to start with), so I invite my friend, but he tells me it won't let him join. So he hosts a server, and it won't let me join. I've read about ports and all that stuff but I'm a mac owner and new to computer gaming, so I don't understand most of what is said.
Won't let anyone join games I host

it has nothing to do with software you just had to navigate to this page and follow the guide. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT160N/Killing_Floor.htm
Since I didn't have the information about your router I wanted you to use the information about your router to navigate to this page and follow this guide no software needed. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT160N/Killing_Floor.htm
That's what I was going to do, but you replied before he gave me his info 
First you need to give your computer a static internal IP address:
http://portforward.com/networking/static-Mac10.4.htm
Then you forward the ports to said IP address:

So sorry for such a late response, Ive been busy. anyways, I did all of that and it still won't let my friend join.
Try getting him to join by typing in your ip address manually.
To find out your IP, go here: http://www.whatismyip.com/
Then tell your friend to open the console (` key) and type "open ip_address_here"
See if that works.
