I did not find any /etc/udev/ in the debian 4-domU. Now I have put 2 
lines in top of /etc/init.d/openvpn
mkdir /dev/net
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
and that gets the openvpn-deamon up on reboot.

Now I can make a openvpn-tunnel to the vpn-server in domU, but not reach 
any other machines on the lan. I think, I have enabled ipforward, but it 
reacts like that is not working.
