I have a system connected to the net through a dialup account, full time, with a class C network. I have an extra modem and line on the FreeBSD (2.1) system, and I would like to allow dial-up ppp into that system. Since I am using tun0 for my internet connection, I get the message: No tunnel device is available. open_tun: No such file or directory It looks like I have to create a tun1 device, but I have created the entry: crw------- 1 uucp dialer 52, 1 Nov 6 13:49 tun1 in the /dev directory, and it doesn't get used. I can't find anything in the man page for ppp which would allow me to tell it which tun device to use. I'm sure I've missed something obvious, but I would be gratefull if someone could tell me what it is. Thanks in advance, Vic.
