 I have got the same problem.
 I have added a ip-in-ip interface by the following command:
 
 nos-tun -t /dev/tun3 -s 192.168.0.2 -d 192.168.0.1 -p 4 10.0.0.156
 
 in the interface list I see this interface and it works fine,
 
 tun3: flags=8050<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         inet 192.168.0.2 --> 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff
         Opened by PID 4368
 
 but when I want to delete this interface by the "ifconfig tun3 down delete" I 
 see it again in ifconfig! And I can't destroy it:
 
 #ifconfig
 tun3: flags=8050<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         Opened by PID 4368
 
 #sudo ifconfig tun1 destroy
 ifconfig: SIOCIFDESTROY: Invalid argument
 
 It disapears only after reboot.
