Like the error says : your iptables binary cannot use a
matching kernel
module.

Does this come from a distro CD or did you recompile the
kernel without
recompiling iptables or something like that ?
Or perhaps you installed a 2.6 kernel and a 2.4 iptables
binary from CD
(we don't know if your distro supports both kernels) ?

Kernel 2.6.9 and iptables-1.2.11 date back to june/october
2004 AFAICT.
If there was an error in the code then a lot of people would
have this
problem and it would be solved with a recent
kernel/iptables..
