Installation doubt on latest iptables release (1.3.3)

Installation doubt on latest iptables release (1.3.3)

[Henrique Cicuto Machado - SAO/Policia Federal]

Hello to everybody.
I've just downloaded the tarball to iptables 1.3.3 and found something strange.
Inside the INSTALL file, it was saying that it is needed a 2.4.4 kernel or above.
Can someone please tell me if I'm just reading it wrong?

Thanks

 What is the problem in "it is needed a 2.4.4 kernel or above" ?

The problem is that kernel 2.4 is still on release 2.4.31, far from 2.4.4.
