Hello

I compiled a kernel 2.6.1 for my RedHat 9 and everything goes well.... I followed (http://thomer.com/linux/migrate-to-2.6.html) these insctructions & compiled iptables as a module (not directly in kernel)!

when iptables1.2.9 gets compiled (same effect with the sources of iptables1.2.8):
-------------------------------
./configure --prefix=/ #he means, ...there's nothing to do...
make moveold #also here--> ...end
make
make check
make install
------------------------
there is no binary-file in /etc/init.d named "iptables" and also no binary file with the same name in /sbin, ...but when I'm executing my firewall-script:
-------------------------------
[root@mobile_abc1 scripts]# ./MASTERCHAINS
Filterregeln des MASTERCHAINS werden übernommen...
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
iptables v1.2.8: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

-------------------------
why this effect? what else can I do?here:

[root@mobile1_abc scripts]# lsmod

module ip_tables is loaded. I didn't manage it to get the iptables-functions running by compiling two different iptables-sources on my 2.6.1 redhat.
what else can I do?
please help
