iptables 죽어도 안되네요 ㅠ.ㅠ

안녕하세요.

먼저 문제는 이것입니다.

여기서 iptables -A xxxxx나 iptables -L 하면...

iptables v1.2.9: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

우선 제 시스템 입니다.

amd athlon, redhat 7.3, kernel-2.6.2

make menuconfig 해서

위와 같이 설정을 해주었습니다. (거의 기본설정 그대로 따랐습니다.)

make bzImage; make modules; make modules_install; make install

하여 정상적 컴파일 되었습니다. 재부팅하고나서 2.6.2로 부팅했습니다.
문제 없이 잘 부팅이 됩니다.

lsmod 하면

iptables v1.2.9: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

위와 같이 나옵니다. 그래서 netfilter의 모듈 한번 다 올려보자는 생각에
관련된걸 다 올렸습니다.

lsmod

이렇게 해도 역시나.... 에러가 나는군요...
방법이 없는건지.. 정상적으로 컴파일 되었구요.. 모듈 파일도 잘 올라갑니다.
근데 막상 실행하면 에러가 나네요.

참고로, ipchains은 모듈 안올렸고요. 실행 안했습니다.

답변 부탁 드립니다.
