[ILUG] Warning: /boot/System.map

I am running the Slackware 4.0 with kernel 2.2.11. Few days ago, I have installed tcplogd.
I can start the daemon fine. When I do the following command, I get this message.

$ ps x | grep tcplogd
Warning: /boot/System.map has an incorrect kernel version.
  182 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/sbin/tcplogd
  276 ttyp1 S 0:00 grep tcplogd

What does this message mean? It is a long list for file names in it.
Yesterday, I did recompile a new kernel. No changes in the modules or devices.

This message appears, if try to grep for any process from the process list.

What is the System.map file? I am assuming that this is a system file and
is not be edited.

Any pointers or info is appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
