I have this in my /etc/udev/rules.d/10-udev-rules # N.B.: Using := prevents later rules modifying parameters, # 50-dev-rules will reset device permissions to 600. KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k",MODE:="666" If you're not running hercules as root, you will need at least file mode 660. Also, you should set /usr/bin/hercifc suid, otherwise hercules will not be able to create the tun device for you. Cheers, Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
