Hi
ive got major problems creating extra tun interfaces
on freebsd 4.7 server
the command ifconfig tun1 create gives
the following error messages
ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE: Invalid argument
ifconfig -C doesnt give any cloneable interfaces
but there is a tun0 interface ronning
does anybody know
The tunx devices are only created by 'user ppp'
You can not manually create tunx devices.
There is an kernel option to increase the number
of tunx devices that 'user ppp' can create.

Nothing. I can't comment on most systems, but block devices were
