Those should be essentially the same commands as the nat init script that I 
posted from K12LTSP ran except it specified an interface for the MASQUERADE.  If 
you can figure out why it didn't work you can use the service command to control it.

In general, things run by init scripts are controlled by the 'service' command 
so 'service service_name on' starts them once.  If you want them to start 
automatically it is "chkconfig service_name on"  or use "chkconfig --list 
service_name" to see whether it is on or off at each run level.
