Actually it's not that simple with Linux; Linux has to complicate
things way beyond the point of sanity.  Each tunnel uses two devices,
sitN (N > 0), and sit0.  All I know is that through the various times
I've tried to configure a tunnel in Linux, it's taken assigning
addresses to sitN and sit0 in some extremely awkward fashion that by
the time I figured it out, I have no clue how I figured it out.  And
the HOW-TOs are fairly useless...so you're likely on your own, unless
someone has done some research using the scientific method and lots
and lots of documentation. (-:  You think I'm joking...
