364      The "ethernet card description" is the name of an Ethernet interface.

365 >    There are three approaches to networking with Basilisk II:
366  
367        1. Direct access to an Ethernet card via the "sheep_net" kernel module.
368           The "ethernet card description" must be the name of a real Ethernet

433           (instead of the ones given in the example above).
434  
435 +      3. Access the network through a "tuntap" interface.
436 +         The "ethernet card description" must be set to "tun".
437 +
438 +         TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user
439 +         space programs.  It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point
440 +         or Ethernet device, which instead of receiving packets from a
441 +         physical media, receives them from user space program and
442 +         instead of sending packets via physical media writes them to
443 +         the user space program.
444 +
445 +         A virtual network configuration script is required and the
446 +         default is /usr/local/BasiliskII/tunconfig unless you specify
447 +         a different file with the "etherconfig" item.
448 +
449 +         This script requires you that "sudo" is properly configured
450 +         so that "/sbin/ifconfig" and "/sbin/iptables" can be executed
451 +         as root. Otherwise, you can still write a helper script which
452 +         invokes your favorite program to enhance a user priviledges.
453 +         e.g. in a KDE environment, kdesu can be used as follows:
454 +
455 +           #!/bin/sh
456 +           exec /usr/bin/kdesu -c /path/to/tunconfig $1 $2
457 +
458    FreeBSD:
459      The "ethertap" method described above also works under FreeBSD, but since
