Has anyone been successful in getting a OpenVPN tunnel working on WBEL? In
theory anying with a newer kernel than 2.4.7 has TUN/TAP included. WBEL has
the if_tun.h file and the dev/net/tun device, however modprobe tun barfs
with
modprobe: Can't locate module tun
Is the TUN/TAP device included in the WBEL/RHEL kernel?
I would love to get this going. Have installed
openvpn-1.5.0-0.rhel3.dag.i386.rpm due to not being able to get it installed
from source (can't remember why, this has been going on for a few weeks now)
Any and all help appreciated.
