[nos-bbs] Problem attaching tun device

[kd6oat]

Not sure if this relates to the problem at hand or not but one of the
autoexecnos instruction lines I found I needed with Ubuntu was the
following:

shell iptables -A FORWARD -i tun0 -o wlan0 -j ACCEPT

in my case because my linux box to router interface is via wlan0.
