Hi all,
I am having problem with iptables start, I am using 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl(result of uname -r) kernel but when trying to start iptables it is giving error :
Applying iptables firewall rules: modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2197.nptl/modules.dep

i have looked iinto the /lib/modules/ diretory I am having 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl derectory there but there is no 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl directory.

I have tried to install rpm for 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl , but it throws 2.4.22-1.2199.nptlalready installed
I have also tried to install rpm for 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl, it shows 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl is installed which is newer version then 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl

I have also made a link to 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl with 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl under modules directory, then it throws : ip_tables.o is compiled for 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl while your kernel version is 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl

Anyone can suggest me how I can syncronize my work so that can run iptables on my system, and what is the situation is?

Many thanks in advance

Regards
Ganesh

What you got there is a messed up kernel installation. Reinstall 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl and make sure you have afterwards the right modules in /lib/modules, then run lilo (if you got it and use it) or make an entry in grub.conf for the new kernel. If rpm says kernel is already installed force the instalation (use --force flag; more details: man rpm)

Chirurgia endoscopică a hipofizei

"Standardul de aur" în chirurgia hipofizară îl reprezintă endoscopia transnazală transsfenoidală.

Echipa NeuroHope este antrenată în unul din cele mai mari centre de chirurgie a hipofizei din Europa, Spitalul Foch din Paris, centrul în care a fost introdus pentru prima dată endoscopul în chirurgia transnazală a hipofizei, de către neurochirurgul francez Guiot. Pe lângă tumorile cu origine hipofizară, prin tehnicile endoscopice transnazale pot fi abordate numeroase alte patologii neurochirurgicale.
