rpm -F (freshen) only updates rpms that are already installed. As
indicated, you don't have kernel-headers installed.
I imagine you do have kernel-headers installed now, but "rpm -q
kernel-headers-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm" would be looking for a package by the
name, you need to use the package name, not the file name. Try rpm -q
kernel-headers again.
Also, consider using -ih when installing, so you know something happened.
