Hi Jeff and all; I am new to UML. I came across a similar problem reported by Klaus Teller's email dated 2008-05-23.
I had changed the permission to 777 my host /dev/net/tun file. It did not help. Another glue I came up with, ifconfig eth0 on my UML system displaying the same error message, SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted. I am suspecting the the problem has to do with the default filesystem of the UML image (built with ARCH=UM -> hostfs is used), as described in one of the wiki page, user cannot use host fs for open TCP socket. Is it the same limitation? I could not find a workaround for this problem on the site. Thank you.
