Well, it did not change anything :(
What is really strange is that "tun" is compiled in the kernel, but the
module is started anyway ???
$ kldstat
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 6 0xc0400000 35aef8 kernel
2 1 0xc075b000 4cd10 acpi.ko
3 1 0xc463d000 4000 logo_saver.ko
4 1 0xc46e2000 4000 if_tun.ko
Here is a part of my kernel configuration:
device miibus
device fxp
device random
device loop
device ether
device ppp
device tun
device pty
device bpf
options ETGRAPH
options NETGRAPH_ETHER
options NETGRAPH_PPPOE
options NETGRAPH_SOCKET
options IPFIREWALL
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=100
options IPDIVERT
options CPU_ENABLE_SSE
options IPSTEALTH
options RANDOM_IP_ID
options SC_DISABLE_REBOOT
I thank you very much for your answer.
Regards.
