Re: [2.5.65] tun not working

[jjs <jjs@tmsusa.com>]

Just as a data point, tun itself works for
me on x86 - I use openvpn between my
lan and our remote pop3 server, so I'd
find out in a big hurry if it ever broke -

(currently running 2.5.65 on the vpn gw)

Sounds like a 390-sepecific issue, or
a hercule-specific issue?
