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.
