[Bug 565856] Re: TUN kernel module (tun.ko) not available in lucid lynx standard kernel

[Marcel Schulte]

In my case it seems as if the "fault" was not at kernel side but the
Juniper VPN client not working with 64bit java systems at all.

I'll try the client software with 32bit Lucid Lynx in an virtualbox
environment tomorrow and will report back if that works for me.

After having seen the builtin tun module I watched the Juniper Webclient
behavior after logging in and found a Java process in my PS list -
without any feedback from that process.

I think the 32bit Lucid will bring my solution as the modprobe check did
not stop the main process - it did just give a warning that the probe
did not succeed.

Don't know how other VPN clients behave but if this would be a problem
for the client to run it should be fixed by the client vendor as it
should be the (linux) user's choice how to provide a kernel
functionality (as module or builtin) - as long as it's there.

As said I'll report tomorrow.

Marcel
