Description: Source for TUN/TAP device driver for 2.2.x Kernels
A TUN/TAP device provides packet reception and transmission
for user space programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point
or Ethernet device which instead of receiving/sending packets from/to
physical media receives/sends them from/to an user space program.
.
The TUN/TAP device driver is needed for tunneling with VTun and a
few other applications like User Mode Linux.
.
The stock 2.4.x Linux kernel series already include support for TUN/TAP
devices, and this package provides the same functionality for 2.2.x kernels.
FreeBSD kernels are also supported.
.
This packages contains the source-code for the kernel module. The kernel
sources must be installed to compile this module.
