>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1-STABLE i386
>Environment:

 FreeBSD 2.1-STABLE using /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/os.c v1.3.4.2
 (the latest from the CVS web-tree util)

>Description:

 OpenTun() limits the maximum number of tunnel devices to 10
 due to a really interesting loop in the code...

>How-To-Repeat:

 vi /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/os.c
 269G

>Fix:

 Just use a plain for loop like is done in the -current code...
