This entry appears to be misspelled. Maybe that's part of the problem?
Most GNU/Linux distros allow setting values under /proc/sys by adding
entries in /etc/sysctl.conf, which is read at boot time.
On an ubuntu gutsy system (i don't have an edubuntu system handy to
try, and i don't know what version you're running anyway), i see this:
0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep forward /etc/sysctl.conf
# Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4
#net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1
# Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv6
#net.ipv6.conf.default.forwarding=1
