apf, iptables modules

Have installed apf firewall on RH9 with cpanel/WHM and have tried to start the service. However, I receive the following mesages:

eth0:error fetching interface information. Device not found. This is followed by: Unable to load iptables module (ip_tables)

I checked the status of Iptables (up and running with no rules as yet), iptables -L showed the 3 basic categories.

lsmod showd iptables installed:

[ipt_mark ipt_MARK iptable_mangle ipt_length ipt_ttl ipt_tcpmss ipt_TCPMSS iptable_filter ipt_multiport ipt_limit ipt_tos ipt_REJECT]


Couldn't get it working, so I reinstalled the iptables rpm with WHM and I get the following:

Flushing firewall rules > OK
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter > OK
Unloading iptables modules: FAILED

What's the best course of action from here?

Many thanks
