hi,

the problem is that there is no "modules.dep" file in
/lib/modules/2.6.18-128.1.1.el5.028stab062.3PAE/ directory... modprobe
is using that file to load the correct path for whatever module you
are trying to load.. in your case tun.ko module..

we will going to manually load tun.ko module using "insmod"... but we
need to know the exact location of tun.ko module... steps to do...

1. cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`

this will bring you to
/lib/modules/2.6.18-128.1.1.el5.028stab062.3PAE/ directory

2. find . - name "tun.ko"

normally, tun.ko resides in ./kernel/drivers/net/tun.ko

3. insmod ./kernel/drivers/net/tun.ko

"lsmod | grep tun" to verify that there is a tun module loaded...

fooler.
