Please help us resolving this issue.
What happens when you try to compile the ipfw module by running that command:
make KERNELPATH=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build from the ipfw-linux-src folder like described in the NeoLoad documentation
Hello Nouredine
This is the complete output for the following command.

We had already installed these kernel rpms on our linux machine:-
[root@uamplgosussd01 2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64]# rpm -qa | grep kernel

[root@uamplgosussd01 2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64]#
As you can see in the output the " /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64/build/include/linux/version.h" file is missing.
Normally after installing the kernel headers that file should be there. Could you try the command below and run again the make command?
cp -v /usr/include/linux/version.h /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64/build/include/linux
