In a similar vein to #1280, it would be useful if the tun module were available within the OpenVZ container.

I have an OCaml network stack that has tests that would run within the container (but with no network traffic leaking out -- just two tun interfaces bridged onto an internal interface within the container). https://travis-ci.org/mirage/ocaml-tuntap/jobs/12459764

Right now an attempt to load the tun module fails:

sudo modprobe tun
FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.32-042stab079.5/modules.dep: No such file or directory

I'm sorry but we are unable to enable tun within our VM system as it potentially opens the door to some security attack vectors. Thanks for creating the issue though. Have a great weekend.

Not a problem. Thanks for the quick response!
