Hello, I am having trouble configuring iptables on my Virtual Private
Server. It seems to ignore any line that has "-m state --state ".
Specifically, I need the line "-A INPUT -m state --state
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT" to work properly and it does not. It seems to
just ignore it and hence I have trouble accessing outside services on my
machine. Is there an alternate way to configure this line or has anyone else
come across such an issue? I am using iptables version 1.4.1.1. Thanks.

Can you generate detailed / debugging output? It's hard to know what
is meant by "does not work properly" without seeing what iptables
thinks the problem is.
