That somewhat strange requirement is related to the "IFCONFIG_BEFORE_TUN" that was mentioned in connection with the ifconfig-noexec discussion. There is a patch from Heiko for relaxing that requirement, so hopefully it will get fixed soon.. As for the error message, the code that tries to guess the dev-node fails in two ways (i) if the specified dev-node is not found or (ii) more than one TAP adapters are found. When do_ifconfig is called without a "guessed" adapter name, the error shown is the same regardless of why the guess failed. Anyway a successful guess doesn't really mean that the tun open will succeed later so the whole logic behind this looks like a poor hack. Once the above mentioned patch is reviewed and merged, the guessing game could be avoided and that error will not happen. Selva
