Nothing.
BTW, here we have the problem: The initial SYN packet isn't matched by rule 
11700 (setup keep-state). Setup means the SYN flag is set, right? So why is 
it not matched? If I remove the "setup" keyword to match all outgoing 
packets, the SYN/ACK from the server is still denied by rule 01900.
