similar to: Tinc with RoadWarriors

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly on this. In thinking about the topology that I am trying to set up, I will probably only set up a "private" DNS on the VPN for the 10.x.x.x users. With this in mind, I have now come up with a new question relating to this. What I will like to do is to give all of the uses, including roadwarriors, a static IP address on the 10.x.x.x address

Hello All, I was just looking over how to set up the hosts files for Tinc and was wondering about how to handle Roadwarriors? It appears that the variable "Address=" must be set for individuals to connect to a host, right? Also, I am wondering about possibly using a private DNS+DHCP server combination that would allow the 10.x.x.x users to have their VPN ip resolved but this does

Hello, is it possible to run tinc behind an unknown firewall(simple NAT) e.g. on windows clients to join an tinc network? These firewalls are not maintained by me and not possible to modify. Thanks for help Kai Tinc: Discussion list about the tinc VPN daemon Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/lists/ Tinc site: http://tinc.nl.linux.org/

Thanks Guus for answering all of these many emails. I now had a question as to if it is possible for something like this. Suppose that you have a Tinc VPN network made up of 4 nodes (A, B, C, D) and you want to dynamically add new nodes (E, F). How can this be done without having to re-start all of the nodes A-D? Based upon what I can see, each node condifuration files need to be modified

Hi, We are trying to set up tinc for playing lan games over the internet. The three of us are running tinc, can ping each other and browse shared folders. yes, windows :| However we cannot connect because we don't show up in the game lobby. The games usually require udp ports to be open, but I think these are all open once we establish the tinc tunnel. Also, testing with all computers in

Hello everybody, I have just released tinc 1.0pre4. Changes: - New authentication protocol (better security, and faster too). - TCPonly and IndirectData are back (but not fully tested). - Documentation revised, it's really up to date with the released package now. - tincd -K now stores public/private keys in PEM format, but keys of 1.0pre3 can still be used. - Faster and more secure

Hi: I'm having some trouble connecting to the tinc VPN I've setup for my client. Basically I would like to connect to the LAN of my client (as I'm currently thousands of miles away and won't be back for a month and a half) to continue with the development of an in-house ERP. I've setup the router (a Linksys router running the stock firmware) to forward both TCP and UDP

Hi, I'm getting this weird error in the logs when starting tinc "Creating metasocket faile: Address family not supported by protocol" I've tried explicitly putting AddressFamily = ipv4 in the tinc.conf file but it doesn't seem to make a difference. The IP's i'm using for the vpn are 10.0.x.x Thanks for your assistance, R. Schwarzenberg -------------- next part

Hello All , I installed tinc for windows. But it doesn't seem to work. I want to connect two computers(for testing purposes) computer1(webdev) and computer2(gis) I have installed the tap-win32 on both of them. Both computers are windows XP. Also I don't have a router.

Hello, I successfully use tinc for one year in a configuration with several subnets (about 5-7 subnets) and one main server. Sometimes tinc dies with the error message: Error while waiting for input: Bad file descriptor If it happens, this happens immediately, when one subnet has disconnected. tinc (on the main server) tries then to disconnect all currently connected subnets and while

Hi, here's a small list of things that need to be done, and the version when it should be ready. smartcard support 1.1 LDAP support 1.1 public/private keys for authentication 1.1 don't store passphrases in files that are called after IP addresses 1.0 use names to identify

In my opinion there ought to be a configuration option that allows for those who have their whole OpenSSL distro located in /usr/local/ssl to configure without what now must be done: moving libraries and include files around, etc. I am reasonably certain that I built my version of OpenSSL (0.9.5a) with the default install paths and names, and it breaks horribly when I try to ./configure in your

Hi, I am triying to configure a VPN, my configuration files are: ****************** TINC.CONF: Name = nova # The internet host to connect with. ConnectTo = nova2 Device = /dev/net/tun #Device name.. Leave as is. Interface = vpn #Virtual Interface name. Give any suitable name. #Mode = "router" #use Router mode

My intention is to set up tinc so that I can connect from home to an office network. All CPUs are running MacOs X, 10.2.8 or 10.3.5. I have read the tinc manual, tincd.8 and tinc.conf.5. However, I am still unclear about a few issues. First and foremost, how to I setup the VPN interfaces on the hosts, on MacOs X? Which file do I have to alter and what is the exact syntax on Os X to setup

Hello. When tinc is compiled with MingW, sockets are not made non-blocking because O_NONBLOCK is not defined anywhere. This leads to weird timeouts when one or more hosts part of a VPN are unreachable, because tinc hangs in connect() (and possibly other places as well). This guy is probably experiencing this bug: http://brouwer.uvt.nl/pipermail/tinc/2007-April/001646.html I've attached a

Hi, got a very funny problem with one tinc connection: I have a network with 4 different nodes - all run the same tinc version and configuration. We have 192.168.0. - 192.168.3. as networks. At three nodes, everything runs like a charm (windows, tcp, etc) At the fourth node (192.168.3.1), the following happens: I can -ping any other IP address in the super-net, -ssh any other host -telnet any
