Hi guys,

I'm trying to use tun/tap to assign some ip to my server (since I'll need it
to my LVS solution) and I think it's a trivial task to put tun to work, but
I'm trying in 3 different machines (with 2  different kernels) and in both
they when I try to ifconfig tun0 I get the follow message:
tun0: error fetching interface information: Device not found

Well, I'd try to look if is something wrong with my kernel configuration but
is everything ok since it just need tun/tap support to be compiled (I did
tried both module and built-in).

/dev/net/tun is a valid character device with 10, 200 (major/minor)

the both kernel I'd tried are 2.6.16-gentoor3 and 2.6.16-gentoo-r9.

so where the error?

tks in advice,
