Package: vpnc
Version: 0.5.3r550-2
Severity: important
the vpn can't be established with the message:
vpnc-connect: can't initialise tunnel interface: Inappropriate ioctl
for device
short investigation shows that in case /dev/net/tun does not exists vpnc
creates it with
open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666) = 3
after that a call
ioctl(5, TUNSETIFF, 0x7fffbc71f7d0) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl
for device)
fails. if i issue a
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
manually vpnc works fine.
i assume that a non-existing /dev/net/tun is a bug as well, probably form
another package (udev?) but vpnc should not create one in the given way.
