Ralph, 

Thanks. I figured most of this out already and it all seems to be
working, but I do not use the "options" line above. Do you know the
consequences of leaving this out?

I looked at /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/ethertap.txt and
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/ethertap.c but couldn't find any reference to
those options. Is there more documentation somewhere?
