Is this too much to ask?

anubis:/home/jon# modprobe tun
anubis:/home/jon# ifconfig tun0
tun0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
anubis:/home/jon# uname -a
Linux anubis 2.6.11-1-686 #1 Fri May 20 07:34:54 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

Thanks Jon, this makes it look less likely a problem caused by randomfingers and more like a kernel problem. I guess the tun interface is notused much.

Geoff
