This is a known problem and there is a patch for that:
http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3156
Your kernel is so old (meaning many security holes). Please update the
system and while doing so, grab the centosplus kernel which has the
fix for this issue.

Hi
Thanks for you reply , currently we have the default kernel 2.6.18-128.el5 ( centos 5.3 ) , can i install the kernel-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.src.rpm and add the patch to this or do i have to download the kernel 2.6.21 then compile it and then install it . I had been to the kernel.org and cant find the kernel 2.6.21 , the kernels available are 2.6.27.49 and above .
