Deprecated "/etc/network/options'

[Felix Karpfen <felixk@webone.com.au>]

When booting Debian Etch, one of the displayed messages reads that the use
of "etc/network/options" is now deprecated and the entries should be
transferred to "/etc/sysctl.conf".

Which I did and failed.

I now get the following additional error messages:

[root@carrot log]# cat boot | grep error
Sat Nov 17 11:25:58 2007: Setting kernel variables...error: "ip_forward" is an unknown key
Sat Nov 17 11:25:58 2007: error: "spoofprotect" is an unknown key
Sat Nov 17 11:25:58 2007: error: "syncookies" is an unknown key

The errors are the three entries that were in "/etc/network/options and
are now in "/etc/sysctl.conf"

What have I <missed|misunderstood>?
