Thanks for your responses. I recompiled the kernel without the 1 in the
tun line and it worked just fine. That 1 screws up all kinds of stuff. :)
The ppp handbook section is very misleading. It says that it is updated,
but the directions still explicitly state to compile the kernel with
pseudo-device tun 1
This is leftover from the 3.4 handbook, in which the directions
worked excellently. I would be more than happy to update that
section if that would be helpful.
Thanks for your help.
Ryan
