    We want to implement OpenVPN on Redhat AS 3.0
    ( 2.4.21-4.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Oct 3 17:52:56 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386
    GNU/Linux),
    the default installation hasn't included TUN/TAP driver, so it's needed
    to rebuild the kernel.
     

    1.How to use "make oldconfig" to add TUN driver? Can the command include
    the parameter?
    2.Does "make xconfig" show all default parameters for the machine?
    "make modules" encountered errors while it's used.
     

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards
    Case
