Hello developers,
Tried to setup a vpn with a friend today. The box ist running NetBSD 1.5.2. But when I tried to start the openvpn with "ifconfig 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.1" in my config file I've got the error "Sorry, but I don't know how to do 'ifconfig' commands on this operating system. You should ifconfig your tun/tap device manually or use an --up script." The --up thing didn't woked. I tried "--up ifconfig 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.2". I don't know why but it always did: 4: tun/tap device /dev/tun1 opened 5: ifconfig tun1 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.1 tun1 1300 1344 After some testings I've decided to try the OpenBSD ifconfig code in tun.c since the syntax is similar for such simple operations. I replaced the message about unknown ifconfig with this code and it worked without any problems. It's quick and dirty, but if there is interest in a NetBSD port then I will add it properly.
