On CURRENT, each time I stop/start vpnc a new tun device is created. Since I restart vpnc every time I re-connect to the network, my ifconfig output fills up with tun devices. On 6.2-RELEASE the tun0 device is reused each time I run vpnc. Reverting to src/sys/net/if_tun.c rev 1.162 shows the old behaviour. (It seems I'm noticing this a bit late) Is this a bug in either CURRENT or vpnc? If I set sysctl net.link.tun.devfs_cloning=0, vpnc doesn't work at all: # vpnc vpnc version 0.4.0 kldload: can't load if_tun: File exists can't initialise tunnel interface: No such file or directory This is a CURRENT as of today. Please tell me if you need more info. Stefan
