I just got a rather strange message from my (OpenVZ-based) hosting company:
> There are limitations on a VPS container. One of them is the ability > to set up persistent devices on your container (Hence the Cannot ioctl > TUNSETPERSIST(1) tun1: Operation not permitted (errno=1)). This is not > by fault but design.

Now, I run OpenVZ in production on my own hardware, so I know that the lack of persistent TUN/TAP devices isn't "by design," but obviously there's some setting that these guys don't know/care about. Would anybody care to clue me in, here? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
