Hi All,
I am trying to compile a new kernel-2.6.24 on RHEL5(xeon-x86_64) to use /* tcp-md5 encryptions*/, but after successfully compilation , kernel headers remain unchanged.
The steps I followed to  compile  the kernel was :

linux2.6.24#]  make  oldconfig
        >make menuconfig (to select  tcp-md5 as  *)
        > make  dep,clean, modules,all
        > make modules_install, headers_install_all
        > make install
Linux2.6.24#] mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.24.img 2.6.24
> check /boot/grub/grub.conf (for proper entry)
reboot.

After Reboot: Checked, system is booted with correct kernel (i.e 2.6.24) but still kernel headers are unchanged (i.e files under /usr/include/{linux,netinet})

Any idea ,what i am doing wrong ?
Any suggestion is welcome ...!

What did you expect to change?  The headers are the headers.  Rebuilding
a kernel doesn't change the headers, just the kernel, its associated
modules and the "/boot/config-(version)" file.

You also don't need the "make dep clean" stuff with 2.6 kernels.
