Can 1 help me about the Iptables ERROR
 
Discuss it with whomever built and/or maintains your server. IPtables is part of the linux kernel. It has to be installed when linux is installed on the server, or you have to update your kernel.

If you're running a VPS it may not be possible to install the support.

By Dedicated Server do you mean that you're renting a server from someone else? If so, then you need to ask them why you're getting this error (there's a slight chance I could be wrong).

If they don't install IPTables in the kernel, or if they can't help you, then we and other contract administrators can do the install for you, but depending on their response, there's a chance we could break your server.

If it's your server and you installed CentOS yourself, then the question would be: Did you install the kernel yourself or us the standard kernal?

While we (and others) can log into your server, and find and resolve the problem, we charge for that. If you're interested in our commercial services write to the email address in my siglines, and refer to the URL of this post. To find and use one of the other server administrators who work on DirectAdmin, search these forums or Google.
