I was under the impression that the later versions of 5 (e.g. 5.5, 5.6)
had backported stateful connection tracking. Has anyone tested recently?
The command
# ip6tables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
works on CentOS 5.5. And there's no documentation for it in "man
ip6tables". So it fits the backport hypothesis...

I guess the next question is whether or not it actually works correctly....
