I have to answer my own question. When I first began using coLinux I
often used the TAP adapter, but forgot about it as I had to do
installations that did not require manual reconfigurations of the
computer's networking. I think I have to add some code that can add
the tap adapter automatically some of those adapters are detected.

Yes guys it works.

Thanks to me for remembering ;-)
