Just to provide some more info (as much to make this bug easier to find as anything else). Bug #404794 is relevant to this - strace output when this fails is:

ioctl(4, TUNSETIFF, 0x7fffb5173c60) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)

One suggested fix would be to ship this part of the network functionality into /etc/kvm/kvm-ifup or similar - as privileges are needed for some of this functionality already. Ideally there could be an option to get both features run from an SUID binary (or otherwise gain the necessary privileges).

Thanks,

Tim.
