I've just been through the same thing with IP Masquerading. I created a 
file in /etc/rc.boot (I don't know whether that was the right place or 
not!) marked it as executable. It contained the following:

#! /bin/sh

echo "Loading ipmasq modules..."
/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_raudio
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_cuseeme
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_vdolive
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_quake

Seems to work for me.....
