[root@localhost ~]# uname -r
2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen
why? it should be 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6
for install ip_wccp i did:
[root@localhost ~]# yum install ip_wccp
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: ip_wccp
Nothing to do
also it gets this result for try to install ip_wccp-1.7 or 1.6 module.help me plssssss
put # in front of hiddenmenu
and
put default=1 and reboot
This will boot the computer into the latest installed kernel(not the xen one) and show you the boot menu where you can select the kernel to boot into
Hope I have got your question correct
Edit: BTW did you manually download & install kernel before doing yum install kernel? It seems that newer version than what exists in the default repository is installed
thanku,i did what u said,but its kernel is old yet

ip_wccp does not seem to be available in yum repositories (incl freshrpms & livna)
There is an rpm available at http://rpm.pbone.net (kernel-net-ip_wccp.---.rpm) which you can download and install else you can download the tar file for ip_wccp and install
i couldnt use those rpms :
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -i kernel-net-ip_wccp-0.1-16@2.2.26_3.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
kernel-up = 2.2.26-3 is needed by kernel-net-ip_wccp-0.1-16@2.2.26_3.i386
this result gets for others trying
help me
The kernel version and the ip_wccp version needs to be the same, if you cant find the ip_wccp version to match your kernel, you can always install kernel(which are more easily available) to match ip_wccp version
