You need the mkiss module loaded as well,
modprobe mkiss
The mkiss module is not included with Red Hat Linux if I recall correctly,
so you will have to rebuild your kernel. There is a Kernel-HOWTO avalilable
to help guide your through the process if you are not familiar with it.
I will note that Red Hat Linux 7.3 is beyond the "end-of-life" support
from Red Hat Inc., you might want to consider Red Hat Linux 9 or Fedora
core 1 as possible replaces in the near future.
Good luck, and I hope that helps,
