Hmmm, I must correct myself: the conntrack entry might get timed out, but then seeing the pure ACKs it picks up the connection again. Still:However how would conntrack loose an (established) connection?
One case where the timeouts allows the above quite easily even if conntrack is running all the time is a half-closed connection. Here conntrack has entered FIN_WAIT with only a 2 minutes timeout.
