newbie question about registering target

[Sandip Bhattacharya]

Hi!

I am presently working on a custom iptables netfilter target.

I already have a kernel module, which does some other work, loaded into 
the kernel. To this, I am trying to add the target using 
``ipt_register_target()''. The target is getting added without any error 
messages. However when I try to use the iptables command line tool with 
a rule specifying my target name(-j xxxx), it refuses to use the one I 
registered  and starts complaining about the shared file being missing. 
Why can't it just use the one i registered in the kernel module?

I have been going through the standard TARGETS that comes along with the 
kernel source, and have been following the same code ...

any place i might be goofing up?

Thanks,
  Sandip
