Strangely enough you try to download Fedora Core SRPMs whilst you speak
of RHEL. Try this one:

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/3/en/os/i386/SRPMS/kernel-2.4.21-4.EL.src.rpm

Also, CentOS would have similar sources. Google could have informed you
on that.

Because most people, especially the ones on this mailing list have moved
on to 2.6 quite some time ago. May I suggest you do the same?
