I use rc.local to start up my firewall. Here are the first few lines of
the script:

	# first, turn off forwarding
	echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

	# load modules
	modprobe ip_tables
	modprobe ip_nat_ftp
	modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp
	...
	>>>> setup all tables here <<<<
	...
	# finally, turn on forwarding
	echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
