A consolidated patch against 2.6.20.12 is here.  It has a lot more than
just the patches mentioned above, but it shouldn't hurt anything to have
the whole patch applied:

http://www.candelatech.com/oss/candela_2.6.20.patch

The original patch for using skb->mark as a tuple was
written by Patrick McHardy, and is here:

http://www.candelatech.com/oss/skb_mark_conntrack.patch

His patch merged with my patch to sysfs to set skb->mark on ingress is here:
http://www.candelatech.com/oss/conntrack_mark_with_ssyctl.patch


Thanks,
Ben
