  If you're using /etc/network/interfaces, you might have something
  like:

    iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.69.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.69.254
        up /etc/network/firewall

  And you'd put your ipchains commands in the firewall script. Call
  the script whatever you'd like.

  Set `ip_forward=yes' in /etc/network/options.

  These files get used by ifup and by /etc/init.d/networking.
  /etc/init.d/network is deprecated. I need to update
  http://www.newt.com/firewall/ with this info.
