<TimTheEnchanter> I personally would set that code aside and write my own driver, then make note of the non-portablity of the provided code in the report or assignment comments. As it is not provided by the prof, it is not a slight against their technical ability to mention that it is not portable.
<TimTheEnchanter> if it were provided by the prof, I would just find an ubuntu machine to run it on and not bother with trying to make the code better.
<maldridge> ...
<maldridge> you understand what a tun driver is right?
<Vaelatern> Which OS?
<TimTheEnchanter> no. I take it that such a thing is quite complicated. In that case... I'd go with the latter and just run it on an ubuntu image
<maldridge> Vaelatern: take a wild guess based on scrollback
<Vaelatern> tun0 sounds OpenBSD
