About iptables and layer7 in Fedora 16

Hi all,

I need to use something like

...>iptables -A FORWARD -m layer7 --l7proto bittorrent -j DROP

and I get this message:

"iptables v1.4.12: Couldn't load match `layer7':No such file or
directory"

Do I need to recompile the kernel, the layer7 module and so on?
If so, any kernel update will destroy this.
Any easy solution?

C. Sava
