Centos VPS Kernel 2.6.35.4 & 'string-less' IP tables

[Always Learning <centos@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

On a VPS I wanted to add to IP tables:-

iptables -A XXXX -p tcp -m string --algo bm --string 'login' -j DROP

I got:

	iptables: Unknown error 18446744073709551615

uname -a =  2.6.35.4 #2  (don't know how this got installed)

lsmod | grep ipt = ipt_LOG   5419  2 

yum upgrade iptables* = nothing to install.

---------------------------------------

On a standalone server (C 5.6)

iptables -A XXXX -p tcp -m string --algo bm --string 'login' -j DROP

is accepted.

uname -a =  2.6.18-274.el5 #1 

lsmod | grep ipt =
ipt_LOG                39617  1 
iptable_filter         36161  1 
ip_tables              55457  1 iptable_filter
x_tables               50505  6
xt_string,xt_state,ipt_LOG,xt_tcpudp,ip_tables,ip6_tables

------------------------------------------------

Appreciate suggestions on how to get kernel 2.6.35.4 to install the
whole IP tables package, especially the STRING and RECENT options (in
-m).

Thank you.

Paul.
