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I'm new at ubuntu (I come from a Fedora background, but I wanted to run a distribution that doesn't go out of date every 18 months).

tun0 would be a virtual interface used to pass IP packets between the Linux kernel and an userspace program, such as openvpn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TUN/TAP).
tunl0 is an IPIP tunnel interface which we want to use here. So, you should adjust the network interace setup to use tunl0. Just set it up with your net-44 address, no need to adjust modes or local addresses in a "normal" setup.

either need to adjust the default, use the -i option to change the interface used by rip44d, or change the tunnel interface name to match so the rip44d is listening on the right interface.
