Package: kvm Version: 72+dfsg-2 Followup-For: Bug #412941
Hello I think we should blame this on the kernel people ;-) tunctl allows to set a group permission on the interface but .. - the group permission only works for users that have this group as primary - if both user and group permission are set than only user with both that UID and primary GID is allowed to open the interface If this were fixed to behave in some sane way you could make the device accessible to some group (kvm or tapnet or whatever) and have users added to that group.
