Hi @tonifirnandes , If you follow the exact instructions there it should work (I did the same thing a few days ago on my new macbook pro). After you attempt the installation, it will fail with the above message. If you then go to your Systems Preferences -> Security & Privacy (1st Tab - General) you will see an additional button near the Allow apps downloaded from: (see attached image)

Clicking this button will approve the installation, from there you can go and run the installation for tuntap again and it should install without issues.

Please let me know if this solves your problem, or if you run into any other issues.

I have the kext loaded (net.sf.tuntaposx.tap) but can't create the tap interface (trying to use for simh to get my VAX network operational):

Note: installed via brew:

brew cask install tuntap

Hi @tonifirnandes I have encountered the same problem, have you solved it?

[AlmirKadric]

@rhickstedjr apologies for the late reply. Will answer this anyway for others to have some reference. If the tap interface doesn't appear within ifconfig it means that docker hasn't bound to it. To resolve this restart docker-for-mac manually. Also to help further diagnose the issue the following information should be provided:

• ls -l /Applications/Docker.app/Contents/Resources/bin/ to make sure the shim was properly installed and configured
• ls -l /dev/tap* to make sure docker has access to tap interface
• ifconfig to make sure docker connected to the tap interface
• netstat -rn to make sure routes were set to the containers over the tap interface
• docker run --rm --privileged --pid=host --net=host alpine ifconfig to make docker created the target interface
• docker run --rm --privileged --pid=host debian nsenter -t 1 -m -u -n -i iptables-save to make sure the docker host allows routing
• docker inspect <<Container_id>> to make sure your container is configure to use all of the above
