Hi

I was wondering, and in cheer ignorance would like to know, if ipchains
has no stateful inspection written into it, why is it supported so much
and why hasn't it been included?

I've used BSD and other Unix's, and seen the wonders of the likes of:
IPFW
IP Filters
and seen the beauty of stateful inspection. I know this question should be
directed a more Linux orientated list, but I'd like to know why, it come
so well recommended. So, someone tell me, is there something I'm missing
????

Dane
