Firstly, thnks to Rob Sterenborg for his help.
I've just visited the patch-o-matic section from the netfilter web site and
I saw this:

Author: Emmanuel Roger <winfield@freegates.be>
Status: Working, not with kernel 2.4.9
This patch adds CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_STRING which allows you to match a string
in a whole packet.
THIS PATCH DOES NOT WORK WITH KERNEL 2.4.9 !!!

I have Red Hat 9 / Kernel 2.4.20-8 / iptables 1.2.7a...I ask you: can I use
this patch package in order to use the libipt_string module ??? Or do I have
to upgrade my kernel at first ???

Where can I get this patch because I suppose it doesn't come with the whole
patch-o-matic ???

 I'm not an expert, so I'm sorry to disturb you.

 Greetings,

 Alejandro from Argentina
