Package: hercules
Version: 3.03.1-1
Severity: grave

Hi,

hercules tries to setup tun device by itself. However, since 2.6.18,
this change has happend in the kernel:
     [NET]: Require CAP_NET_ADMIN to create tuntap devices.
     Date:   Thu Jun 22 16:07:52 2006 -0700

The "usual" way to deal with this would be to use tunctl to add an
device, and tell hercules to use this device. However, this is not
supported (at least AFAICS).

Result: Only root can still use hercules.


Cheers,
Andi
