this is my first ever mail sent to this list ...

anyways i have a got a problem with iptables .. i downloaded 
iptables 1.2.5 day before and compiled the patch in kernel 2.4.18, 
well the compilation went well (no kernel panics or error 
compiling) but when i start iptables i throws this error message
.....

iptables: libiptc/libip4tc.c:384: do_check: Assertion 
`h->info.valid_hooks == (1 << 0 | 1 << 3)' failed.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables: line -248:  4935 Aborted

       4947 Aborted                 | /sbin/iptables-restore -c

......

and then after this message iptables [ FAILED ]

could someone explain why do i get this error message ?

i had added the iptables patch by
1.  # make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.18/
2.  # make install KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.18/


i desperately need to enable voice chatting in msn messenger on my 
network which needs H.323 protocol and i guess those modules are 
inbuild in iptables 1.2.5 ..

plz respond as soon as possible
Thanks in advace
