Hi Matthew,<br>
<br>
Did you compile from source, or did you use the macport
instructions?<br>
If you didn't use macports, have you installed tuntaposx?<br>
The device should be tap0, not tun0.<br>
<br>
Remove the Subnet variable from your laptop hosts file. It is not
needed in switch mode.<br>
<br>
I wouldn't worry about bridging yet, try to get the connection going
with the tap0 device first.<br>
<br>

<div>Hi Folks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This has been driving me nuts all day. I've been unable to
google myself out of it. Maybe someone here can help?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>I followed the instructions from: </div>

<div>Ubuntu server <-> Ubuntu server works just fine with
the same config. Ubuntu server <-> Mac laptop not so
much. </div>

<div>The error I'm getting is:</div>

<div>The error pops up after I try to get DHCP going over the
link. (ipconfig set tun0 DHCP). Not that it works before I try
and do that. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Both sides seems happily connected before issuing the DHCP
command.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've tried just about everything I can think of for the
configs. Switch on, off, bridging on and off on the server
side.. nothing seems to work. I do find it odd that under linux
the virtual device looks like this: </div>

<div>Makes me think that the tun/tap device is wonky? </div>
