1. compile new kernel => compile new iptables ?

just installed a new kernel and iptable stopped working.
I get the following error:

# iptables  -F FORWARD
iptables v1.2.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Module is wrong
version
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

having kernel2.4.16 and iptables 1.2.4.  I check googles and the
netfilter-docs and the postings in googles says that this is, if iptables
wasnt compiled against the recent kernel and the netfilter-install needs
the kernel-sources in every step.

somehow this doesnt make sense to me. The netfilter-modules are included
with the kernel-sources and therefore change at every new kernel, but why
should I be forced to compile a new iptables-binary ever time I update my
kernel ?

thnx,
peter
