Ron, I don't have any IP address on my tap interfaces. I would do
ifconfig tap0 0.0.0.0 to remove the ip address from it.

However, I don't think this would help you with the weird error
message you're getting.

Make sure /dev/net/tun exists and is -rw-rw----. Also make sure
the 'tun' driver is loaded (modprobe tun).

Also, try checking your logs (specially dmesg output and the contents
of /var/log/messages, /var/log/syslog, /var/log/kernel, depending on
your distribution).

Best luck.
