ubuntu won't let me create an interface called tunl0. There is one created
automatically when I create tun0.
nmjoo@earth:~$ sudo ip tunnel
[sudo] password for nmjoo:
tun0: ip/ip remote any local 128.255.134.47 ttl inherit
tunl0: ip/ip remote any local any ttl inherit nopmtudisc
nmjoo@earth:~$
I'm new at ubuntu (I come from a Fedora background, but I wanted to run a
distribution that doesn't go out of date every 18 months).
