Here's the pertinent section of my /etc/sysconfig where I define > lo0 and tun0: > ---------- > network_interfaces="lo0 tun0" > > ifconfig_lo0="inet localhost" > ifconfig_tun0="inet spacehog.structured.net 206.58.0.100 netmask 0xffffff00" > ---------- As I know, you don't have to ifconfig tun0, it will be ifconfiged by pppd. And localhost in lo0 is good, if your hosts has localhost, and your host.conf has host before bind. (Well, the second error as I think, that you don't need the name AND the IPaddr in the ifconfig line, only one of them - in sysconfig, recommended the IPaddr.) > Does it mean anything that I have a /dev/tun0 but not a /dev/lo0? No. You don't need a lo0. -- Gabor Zahemszky -:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:- Earth is the cradle of human sense, but you can't stay in the cradle forever.
