Iodined: Open_tun: /dev/net/tun: Operation Not Permitted
Hi guys, I got error when executing iodined at my vps:
$ sudo iodined -f -P test1 192.168.0.1 localhost iodined: open_tun: /dev/net/tun: Operation not permitted: Operation not permitted
so i check
-. iodine version:
iodine IP over DNS tunneling server version: 0.5.1 from 2009-03-21
-. uname
2.6.32-042stab068.8 #1 SMP Fri Dec 7 17:06:14 MSK 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
-. ls -l /dev/net/tun
rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 200 May 5 00:24 /dev/net/tun
how can i resolve this problem? thanks in advance.
regards,
marco

Same as I said on Debian’s list..
You’ll need to talk to your host.
okay, thanks.
Specifically you host is supplying you with an openVZ or Virtuozzo VPS. This is not a fully virtualised system so you will not have access to a lot of devices.

check your virtualization with
$ virt-what
result:
openvz
so there is no any work around to access /dev/net/tun in openvz, isn’t it?
Ask your hosting provider; tun/tap access is granted on a container-by-container basis and they can easily enable it for you if they wish; it will require your container being stopped and then restarted but it’s trivial for them to do.
