Check /etc/sysctl.conf
You can set anything settable under /proc/sys with this file, it is part of the sysctl program, and it's run at startup before any runlevel by /etc/rcS.d/S30procps (at least in sarge, woody is probably the same).

Thanks,
I have looked around a little bit more now and I will put all my kernel alterations into /etc/sysctl.conf except for the
`echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward� since this would generate a race condition during boot up. You know the default stance of the iptables FORWARD table is ACCEPT.
I will add this to the /etc/default/iptables
iptables -P FORWARD -j DROP echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
This way will the system not forward packages to the hosts behind the firewall
