I couldn't find the patch-o-matic documentations. I'm new to Linux and trying to learn as much as can with the help of you guys....

Hello Didier, You will want to apply the patch-o-matic to your kernel and then recompile your kernel prior to compiling and using the 1.2.7a version of iptables. I could be wrong, but I do not think that the default RedHat kernel has all of the necessary iptables modules. /*Raj*/
