Re: [Openvpn-users] OpenVPN CentOS Problem Issue

[Jan J. K. <ja...@ni...>]

do (as root)
  modinfo tun
  modprobe tun

if the second command returns an error , then there's something wrong 
with your CentOS installation ; after the 'modprobe' do an
  lsmod | grep tun
to see if the device is actually listed.
