ssh ethernet tunneling as normal user
1
I would like to connect 2 tap-devices. The tap-device on the remote server is owned by "user". This is my test-command:
# ssh -oTunnel=ethernet -w0:0 user@server
But it does not work, I get this error:
channel 0: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed
How could I solve this problem?
distro: openSUSE, location: France

I am little confused. I was about to answer "not" because I remember it once said in the man page that you require root privileges on your client to create a tun or tap device, but I cant find that remark i neithersshnorssh_configman pages. So I guess I don't have an answer for you. :-(

The tap already exists and is owned by the user. ssh just has to attach to it. As root, there is no problem, but I prefer to use a normal user.

As you say, the easiest way is doing as root on both sides. I also do not feel confy doing it.

@Bananguin & all sshd_config : PermitTunnel ... Independent of this setting ... device must allow access to the user. so seems possible as non root. what about SELinux/Apparmor ?

@Bananguin & all sshd_config : PermitTunnel ... Independent of this setting ... device must allow access to the user. so seems possible as non root. what about SELinux/Apparmor ?
