Hi!
On two quite different servers I have the problem that I get this error
message:
tincd 1.0.4 (Apr 21 2006 16:20:48) starting, debug level 3
Could not open /dev/net/tun: No such device
Terminating
The device is there:
~ # ls -l /dev/net/tun
crw------- 1 root root 10, 200 Sep 9 2002 /dev/net/tun
As I did not create it myself my best guess would have been that it
comes with the distro.
This is SuSE 8.1 (no typo) in one case and Debian Sarge with 2.4 kernel
in the other case.
Is there a way to find out if the tap/tun device is compiled into the
kernel?
Regards,
Torsten
