tcrypt missing perhaps?
 
Try this first:
Code:

modprobe tcrypt
and then do
Code:

modprobe wlan_auth
The tcrypt kernel module provides the symbols you require (I think -- at least that is what a "grep crypt_alloc_tfm" in the /lib/modules directory came up with)

If you still have symbols missing, try greping for the in the /lib/modules/[kernel version]/kernel/crypto directory. If you find them this way , you will also see which module to load.

thank you much first .

according to your said , I did the following :
"grep crypt_alloc_tfm" in the /lib/modules directory

but there were not any results .
I googled "crypt_alloc_tfm" and found that this symbols was defined in the Kernel 2.4.26 least , so was there any patch for the kernel 2.4.20 ?

thank you again .
