All the information I have for it is that the virtual machine is
at a host provider and at separate addresses to the other
machines. I will try to get more information now, but I have been
out all day and not had a chance to look into this again.

Thanks that is the information I needed. I had to stop work on it
when I sent my email and wasn't sure if being ran inside a
virtual machine affected the tun device.

Appreciate you help.
