[Pvfs2-users] configure: error: The kernel source tree does not appear to be 2.6

[g_p g_p]

Hello,
i actually did:
sudo
./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.17.1.el5-x86_64
and then it outputted:
----------------------------------------------------------------------***** Displaying PVFS Configuration Information *****------------------------------------------------------PVFS2 configured to build karma gui               :  noPVFS2 configured to perform coverage analysis     :  noPVFS2 configured for aio threaded callbacks       : yesPVFS2 configured to use FUSE                      :  noPVFS2 configured for the 2.6.x kernel module      : yesPVFS2 configured for the 2.4.x kernel module      :  noPVFS2 configured for using the mmap-ra-cache      :  noPVFS2 will use workaround for redhat 2.4 kernels  :  noPVFS2 will use workaround for buggy NPTL          :  noPVFS2 server will be built                        : yes
PVFS2 version string: 2.8.1---------------------------------------------------------------------
(Previously i had tested: [pvfs-2.8.1]$ sudo ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.35.7custom

OUTPUT:configure: error: The
kernel source tree does not appear to be 2.6)
What shall i do next?
In the quick start guide says: "The module itself is the file pvfs2.ko in subdirectory src/kernel/linux-2.6 in your build tree"In my folder "/usr/pvfs-2.8.1/src/kernel/linux-2.6" there is no file named pvfs2.ko or any file created  today.Tha only file that is modified is the "Makefile" in that specific folder.So what about the next step? Cause i can't not "insmod" anything.
Thanks, in advance
ps. I don't know if the machine is a cluster
