Tun/tap question

Hi list,

I am currently trying to get tun or tap working (with vde and qemu) but
for some reason things don't work as I expect them:

ten# vde_switch -tap tap0 -daemon ; ifconfig tap0 192.168.1.254 ; chmod
777 /tmp/vde.ctl
ifconfig: interface tap0 does not exist

Could it be I am missing a kernel option?

vde_switch is working without tap, I can between to linux'es in qemu.

ten# uname -a

Thanks,

Maarten
