I put mine in /etc/ipchains/ipchains.rules
and I have a startup script in /etc/init.d
After the recent netbase upgrade (it messed things up) I had to run
'update-rc.d -f packetfilter remove' and I put this in my /etc/ppp/ip-up:
/etc/init.d/packetfilter start
and /etc/init.d/packetfilter stop
in /etc/ppp/ip-down
I liked it better the way things were, but the recent netbase package threw a
monkey wrench in the works.

btw the 'packetfilter' script I got from the documentation for netbase, I
believe.
