I created a shell script called /etc/rc.boot/ip_forward_init which takes
care of this for me automatically at boot-time:

  #!/bin/sh
  echo -n "Echoing 1 to /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward: "
  echo "1" >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
  echo "Done."

Works a treat. Hope that clears up the exact syntax :).
