[Openswan Users] Openswan and RHEL 3 error xfrm_user module

Hi,

I'm using RHEL 3 with kernel 2.4.21-15.0.2.
I installed openswan packages from Dag Wieers 
(http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/packages.php)

openswan-utils-2.1.2-1.1.el3.dag.i386.rpm
/kernel-module-openswan-2.4.21-15.0.2.EL-2.1.2-1.1.el3.dag.i686.rpm

But when starting ipsec, I get the following error:

service ipsec start
ipsec_setup: Starting Openswan IPsec U2.1.2/K2.4.21-15.0.2.EL...
ipsec_setup: modprobe: Can't locate module xfrm_user 

First I tried with kernel 2.4.21-15 an openswan 2.1.1 from Dag Wieers 
and it work's fine.

Now, after updating kernel and openswan packages I get the error.

Is there any possibility to solve this problem?
I searched in kernel libs 2.4.21-15 for xfrm_user module, but I can't 
find it.
Why do I get this error only with kernel 2.4.21-15.0.2?


Thanks!

Nicole
