 Gday.

  Talking 2.1-stable ctm release 114.

  the changes to /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/os.c, function 

   OpenTunnel(ptun)

  indicated to me that there can only be tunnel devices
  from 0->9...  its a neat loop, but perhaps it belongs
  in a obstfucated (that word) code competition.

  the plain old for loop in previous versions seemed to 
  do the trick just as well and only limited us to
  256 tun devices... 10 tun devices is just too small
  on a 38 port server.

  also line 150 of /sys/net/if_tun.c should return
  EBUSY rather than ENXIO...

  Peter
