I've transfered my home network router from one RH6.2 box to a new RH6.2
box.  The new box is just the canned RedHat Server installation.  I've
managed to get the two interfaces working (eth0 and a modem) and
ipchains up.  There is a variable that must be set to the value of '1'
to forward ip requests through this box.  It is
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.  This can be done manually by using the
command; echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.  My problem is this.
The value will not stay at '1' after a reboot or restart.  Right now, I
use ssh to remotely correct this problem everytime the system restarts
but this is getting old.

Thinking that I simply needed to set 'FORWARD_IPV4' in the
/etc/sysconfig/network file to 'yes'.  I tried this but it didn't
correct the problem.

What am I overlooking?

Best Regards,
  Art
