I'm using tun to connect my virtual S/390 from hercules to the local
machine. That works pretty well with 2.4, but with 2.5.65 hercules
fails with:

root@gswi1164:~# hercules -f /etc/hercules/hercules.cnf
Hercules Version 2.16.5

  Debian
  Modes: S/370 ESA/390 ESAME

HHC848I 0400 configuration failed: hercifc rc=4
HHC038I Initialization failed for device 0400

hercules uses /dev/net/tun to access the tun device.

The module tun is loaded:

dmesg:
Universal TUN/TAP device driver 1.5 (C)1999-2002 Maxim Krasnyansky

root@gswi1164:~# lsmod | grep tun
tun 6240 0

Any idea why this fails?
