Bastille does not lock down ip_forwarding

As per the doco running Bastille for HOST.config should lock down ip_forwaring and update /etc/rc.config.d/nndconf with the following:

The following ndd changes will be made:

ip_forward_directed_broadcasts=0
ip_forward_src_routed=0
ip_forwarding=0
ip_ire_gw_probe=0
ip_pmtu_strategy=1
ip_send_source_quench=0
tcp_conn_request_max=4096
tcp_syn_rcvd_max=1000

We have run this on several 11.11 and 11.23 systems and nndconf was not updated.

However, for 11.31 it was.

Does anyone know the cause?

If these settings are not already in the file then is it the case that running bastille with HOST.config will not update nndconf?

Many thanks,
