The message "tun0 does not exist" is very different from the message
"tun0: device not configured".  The former indicates that the /dev/tun0
device node does not exist and needs to be created with the MAKEDEV
script.  The latter indicates that the node exists but that the running
kernel was not copiled with "psuedo-device tun".

Ciao,
