tinc - Feb 2002 - Bugs in 1.0pre5

Hello,

I set up a tinc vpn network with tinc 1.0pre5 on Mandrake 8.1

Please take note of the following troubles i noticed


1) In the config files, the name of the variables are case sensitive
2) the BindToInterface seems to be faulty. I removed the line, now
everything work, except the security aspect..
3) I HAD to add a Subnet=<full address of the local tinc device> in
the
hosts file, or i get a message : cannot route packet to < address of
the
distant tinc device (set up in tinc-up with ifconfig)> on the other
side.

Thanks for all this good work anyway, congratulations too !

S?bastien

We know, it's fixed in CVS.

We never really tested this, but I'll look into it when I have some
time.

I don't know if this is a bug in tinc, could you send me your tinc.conf,
host config files and tinc-up scripts so I can see exactly what's going
on?
