setting permissions of /dev/net/tun across reboot

[twelvegates]

How can one set the access permissions of /dev/net/tun accross reboots?

I've changed the "tun" entry in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-mdk.rules to read like this:

KERNEL="tun",                                   SYMLINK="net/%k",  MODE="0666"

But the permission is 0600 after reboot nevertheless.

Put your chmod command for the device file at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local. That's the easiest way to do it without tracing through everything to see if anything is changing the perms back. Rc.local is the last init script to run so nothing else should mess with the perms.
