KVM networking.

Good time of the day.


I try to run KVM network w/o under normal user w/ the following result:

/usr/bin/kvm -localtime -m 256 -no-reboot
-cdrom ./debian-6.0.2.1-amd64-netinst/debian-6.0.2.1-amd64-netinst.iso
-boot d -hda ./da -net nic -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no

kvm: -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no: could not configure /dev/net/tun
(tap0): Operation not permitted

kvm: -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no:
Device 'tap' could not be initialized

the user has write permission for /dev/kvm and has these permissions in
sudoers file though it seems it is not used (as it asks not for sudo
password):

user   ALL = /sbin/ifconfig *, /sbin/ifup br0, /sbin/ifdown
br0, /sbin/ip *, /sbin/brctl *, /sbin/tunctl *

So, what's wrong w/ my setup?


Thanks for Your time.
