You can open/shut ports but you can't do anything with connection state
(RELATED, ESTABLISHED, ect).  For example, you have to open all upper inbound
ports manually if you want to complete outbound connections.

The solution is to manually build your own kernel from a vanilla source, along
with all the problems that entails.
