Hello People from linux-kernel and linux-net

I'm trying to use IP tunneling in linux (ip-over-ip encapsulation).

I'm using kernel 2.0.35, and have compiled with the necessary
options to use IP-Tunneling.

But, the devices tunl0 and tunl1 were not created in /dev
so I can not issues command concerning these devices.

I read in /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/README.tunnel
about loading ipip.o and tunnel.o (actually new_tunnel.o)
with insmod.

I have /usr/src/linux/net/ipv4/ipip.o
and /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/new_tunnel.o

When I try to run insmod, it gives em the following
answer:

>> # insmod /usr/src/linux/net/ipv4/ipip.o                      
>> kernel_version needed, but can't be found
>> #

Tha same happens with new_tunnel.o.

I couldn't go further. I also read somewhere else
that I should look the file /proc/net/dev.

I did so and the contents are shown below

the devices tunl0 and tunl0 apear in the file, but
not in /dev.

I stop here and don't know to go further.

Hope you can give me any help.

Thanks a lot!
