jfe Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 Hi all, I just downloaded the latest Armbian Bionic release and tried the new 5.0 kernel. So far everything looks good, but I can't get openvpn to work. The /dev/net/tun device is missing and I can't load the module. Since I'm new to armbian and my search didn't turn up any help - is there a way to get it to work? Thanks in advance, Jan

jfe Posted May 14, 2019 Author Posted May 14, 2019 Nope, I couldn't find it and a quick search turned up nothing: find /lib /usr /opt -name 'tun.ko'

jfe Posted May 14, 2019 Author Posted May 14, 2019 Thanks, I was kinda hoping for a different answer I haven't compiled a kernel for a long time. I guess I need to change that...

jfe Posted May 15, 2019 Author Posted May 15, 2019 yes, the build script are impressive and make it really easy. Thanks for the little push... the kernel is running fine and I already made a PR
