tinc - Sep 2009 - Installing TAP-Device - Windows Vista

Hi,

the documentation says, that I have to run the addtap.bat as an 
Administrator to install the device for an 64Bit System. But the only 
Message that I get back from the script is "tapinstall.exe failed."

Does anybody know the problem?

Best regards.

Markus

The TAP driver in the tinc 1.0.9 installer is too old. You should download the
latest OpenVPN installer from their site:

http://openvpn.net/release/openvpn-2.1_rc19-install.exe

When selecting components, only select "TAP Virtual Ethernet Adapter"
(deselect
the rest), and continue with installing. The OpenVPN installer itself should
already install one TAP adapter. Tinc should then be able to use that.

Let us know if it works or not.
