Hi, I am trying to run Windows 2000 inside QEMU, and it works well (though a bit slow). In order to get my emulated machine on the Internet, I have to use "/dev/tun0". I read online that the default FreeBSD 5.x has "tun" turned on in the kernel, but I do not appear to have a "/dev/tun0" device. Does anybody know anything about this? I tried using the "-user-mode" networking, and it worked - I can ping 10.0.2.2, but I cannot talk to any computer except my FreeBSD host. So I think I need to figure out "tun". Most of the literature on the internet related to "tun" and "tun/tap" seems to be about linux, but I suspect FreeBSD is similar. I am really impressed with QEMU! thx
