I am an Amature radio operator and use a program that requires the creation of a tun network device , does DSL support this "out of the box" or is there a way to allow it to be created in modular format ? I am new to linux networking so any help would be appreciated

I am currently using FC4 and find it to be too bloated for what I need and the ability of creating and running this from a "Live" cd would be very benificial

/dev/net/tun does exist in DSL-N
modprobing it gave me no errors.

..in root shell "modprobe tun"

This command could be added to your bootlocal.sh file to be autorun
at boottime, to make the device available to your program when requested.

Since it is userspace requested, you'd have to test more with your app/prg. Let us know how it goes with your attempts.

What app are you trying to use?

See here for more info.

Well the application is JNOS , it is a BBS system available to Ham Radio operators via Radio using AX25 , it also serves as a gateway to allow encapsulated AX25 traffic to be routed to and from the internet thanks for the information I will grab a copy and start playing right away Smile
