You little ripper..! It seems to work like a charm (so far).
Very good stuff - thank you.

States are being created, acknowledged as active, and then promptly
disappearing from the active count.
No mention of any orphan states in ipfstat -dsl

Plus, ipf -FS -Fs works and actually clears the states, as in version 3.

Only other problem I'm trying to sort - which probably isn't related - is
why internet-bound traffic is slow out this firewall..
But I suspect that might be more to do with Solaris TCP tuning than
IPFilter.

I'll let you know if I notice anything else odd.
It's pretty easy to compare because I've got the same ruleset (excluding
interface names) on NetBSD/IPF3.4 and Solaris10/IPF4.1.15.

Possibly when the dust settles this could be released as an official bugfix
for the vanilla IPFilter (4.0.2) on Solaris 10?

thanks for your hard work Darren

Corey.
