iptables module installation going wrong.

[Emmanuel Guiton <emmanuel@netlab.hut.fi>]

Hei!

I tried to install iptables v1.2.9 on a Debian with a 2.4.22 kernel but 
I cannot load the module in the kernel.

I patched my kernel with patch-o-matic (20030912)), re-configured it and 
I think I didn't forget any option. (I put the relevant part of the 
.config file at the end of this mail)
I made the new kernel and options, installed them, rebooted.
I installed iptables. no problem.
I tried to load the iptables.o in the kernel and I get the following error:

pc104:/# insmod iptables.o
iptables.o: couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for

while if I just try to use iptables, I get:

pc104:/# iptables -L
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_tables
iptables v1.2.9: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? 
(do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
pc104:/#

Does someone have a clue?

Thanks,

          Emmanuel
