Description Peter Childs 1996-06-09 11:20:01 UTC 
 Line 150 of /sys/net/if_tun.c returns ENXIO when it should return
 EBUSY.

 This can cause problems if the ppp code assumes because
 device 0 returned ENXIO that no other devices will be available
 (which would be sensible), and terminates its loop without assigning
 a tunnel device.
 
 The current stable :) os.c code doesn't, but thats broken
 in its own special way anyway :)

Fix: 

change

  return ENXIO;

 to
  
  return EBUSY;
How-To-Repeat: 
 Glance at the code..
