I noticed redhat-config-securitylevel got the following change, and
was wondering about the rationale (bug 104561 seemed to be marked
private last time I checked)

* Thu Sep 18 2003 Bill Nottingham <notting at redhat.com> 1.2.8-1
                                                                                
- allow ICMP in general (#104561)

I was under the impression the previous version which allowed echo and
--state RELATED,ESTABLISHED allows all the icmp traffic that is necessary to
 be a Good Internet Citizen (tm), but obviously there was some case
it didn't cover :-)
