I complied a custom uml kernel which I transfered to the server
on which I want to run it but when I tried to set up the network
I got an error:

(none):~# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.253 up
tuntap_open_tramp : didn't receive a message
setreuid to root failed : : Operation not permitted
tuntap_open_tramp failed - err = 22
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument
tuntap_open_tramp : didn't receive a message
setreuid to root failed : : Operation not permitted
tuntap_open_tramp failed - err = 22
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument


Before that I had everything that allowed me to bring up the network
on my other machine:

# tunctl -u martin
% uml_mconsole umid=sandbox config eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.1.254

/dev/net/tun is readable and writable. And my user belongs to the
uml-net group. What did I do wrong? Did I compile the custom kernel
with (or without) some option that is causing the error? From the error
message it seems to be a permissions error but I have no idea where
this is coming from since everything that caused permission errors
before was fixed. What would be setreuid and setreuid in the error
message above?
