OpenVPN and dev option

[BERTRAND Joël <joel.bertrand%systella.fr@localhost>]

	Hello,

	I use OpenVPN for a long time on several Linux servers and I'm able to 
specify device name by dev option. For example, if I add in openvpn 
configuration file :

dev tap2
dev-type tap

I'm sure that this instance of openvpn will create and use tap2 even if 
ther is no tap0 nor tap1.

	I have tried to use the same capability under NetBSD (7.0.2) and 
OpenVPN doesn't start anymore. If I want to specify a named interface, I 
have to use :

dev tap2
dev-type tap
dev-node /dev/tap

but OpenVPN doesn't use tap2. It always create a new tap device with the 
little minor it can find.

	In my case, it always create tap1 as tap0 is used for another VPN.

	How can I force this device name ?

	Best regards,

	JKB
