It's not a matter so much of where to get the sources as it is that since it is an OpenVZ container you don't have direct access to the hardware, nor the ability to load kernel modules as the kernel is shared between everyone on the host node.

Your provider can, if they are willing, load the module for the host, but many are not willing to do so.

The OpenVZ kernel sources should be available on the OpenVZ web site in RPM format, and you can get them there, download them and install them, for what it's worth.

Thanks Guys.....

There are very active female folks as well in CentOS kernel space ...

To follow on what John has said -- the CentOS project does not build a kernel emitting the uname containing: 2.6.18-128.1.1.el5.028stab062.3PAE , nor HAVE the patched sources for "2.6.18-128.1.1.el5.028stab062.3PAE"

Only the person providing it to you has it (or, at least SHOULD have access to them) -- as the kernel is GPL(2) licensed, they are perhaps under an obligation to make it available to you
