Data New kernel Issue
root@pr [~]# iptables -L
modprobe: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented

modprobe: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented

modprobe: Can't locate module ip_tables
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

Seems that iptables module not loaded. I am using new kernel 2.6.17.9

How to fix this probelm?

Did you compile the kernel or upgrade in standard way for your distribution?

What distro are you using?

have you tried depmod?

Actually i have 7 servers. I am using redhat,centos & Fedora. I am compiling the new kernel manually. Through upgarde you cannot install kernel 2.6.17.9


Please let me know how to fix this issue.

Did you 'make modules_install' after compiling the kernel? I did warn you there'd be incompatibilities...

That error is related to the appropriate module no compiled either into kernel or as module ...
when you are building a new kernel check whether you have the options you wanted checked to be built (into kernel or as module) and as said earlier do
Code:
make modules ; make modules_install

I have done the following steps in kernel compilation.

make menuconfig
In menu config i have selected the iptables.

make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
make install


Let me know.
