You can get the latest snapshot of usagi 2.6 kernel and tools which support
ip6_conntrack from

	ftp://ftp.linux-ipv6.org/pub/usagi/snap/kit/

usagi 2.4 kernel does not support ip6_conntrack.

There is kernel configuration about ip6_conntrack in "IPv6: Netfilter
Configuration". If you also want to use IPv6 connection state matching,
you can use ip6tables in usagi-tools. Usage of it is same as IPv4 connection
state matching.

Just for reference, you can get nf_conntrack which generalizes ip_conntrack and
ip6_conntrack from the message from me at 01 Jul 2004 in this ml. This is not
in usagi kernel yet.
