The relevant file to look at, I believe, is /sbin/susefirewall, which is a shell script. There is indeed some IPv4 -- IPv6 asymmetry, which is related to the fact that older kernels didn;t have statefull IPv6 filtering (I can be wrong here). The current state of the firewall is given by "iptables -L -v" and "ip6tables -L -v". You can save this state by doing iptables-save > /path/to/file, and then iptables-restore < /path/to/file on startup. Just curious, are you saying that there are IPv6-only sites on the web?
