put in a firewall rule on OPT1 allowing protocol any, source any,
destination not LAN subnet (check the "not" box, select LAN subnet).

The AP should just bridge over to m0n0wall's OPT port.  That means
plugging one of the LAN ports into the Linksys (if it's a router/AP,
like a WRT54G), and no other configuration is required (other than
setting the SSID, and anything else you might want to configure on the
wireless

Then assign an IP address to OPT1, like 192.168.2.1/24, and enable
DHCP within that range on the OPT1 interface (like
192.168.2.10-192.168.2.199 or something).

Get all that working, then you'll probably want to enable captive
portal, if for nothing other than a click through splash screen that
can redirect them to your web site, or something like that.
