Thanks Graham Please excuse me as I am a noob in linux . I have come across this link through searches. I just dont know how to start... Do I "wget http://www.tinc-vpn.org/packages/tinc-1.0.26.tar.gz" to openwrt vm and then how do I compile it in openwrt? <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> This

You can find tinc package in openwrt repo and install it with opkg or luci. I suggest you first run couple of tinc nodes on x86, just to understand how it works. -- brgds Max On Jan 19, 2016 7:17 PM, Yazeed Fataar <yazeedfataar at gmail.com> wrote: Any help please?

Forget about tinc. I won't work until you solve issue with your kernel.

Hi Marek I managed to setup everything in openwrt. However I am getting errors when trying to run tinc daemon. Below is my debug output. Please help..

Hi Graham Can you perhaps share with me the mr-mips metarouter image you are using?

Hi Maxim I have setup previously a few nodes running on Ubuntu. And work fine. Im trying it now in openwrt and cant get tun interface. When I do "lsmod | grep tun" I cant see tun interface. Do you know how to fix this? Regards Yazeed Fataar <yazeedfataar at hotmail.com> On Tue, Jan 19, 2016 at 7:24 PM, Maxim Vorontsov <6012030 at gmail.com> wrote: > You can find tinc

If the module is there but not loaded, why don't you just "insmod" it? I am confused. Sorry, I can't help further. I have told

Thanks Guus So based of this , having your central tinc server in VPS Provider , will allow potentially the provider to replicate your config files and thus exposing all your remote sites connected. My situation I face is all my remote sites have dynamic addresses ,and in order for me to create a connection point between the sites is to have a central server in cloud with public address. Therefor

Hi I hope this was not asked before. What methods can be used to secure the "tinc" config files? If for example using a VPS provider like digital ocean , how can one be sure that the local admins dont access your container and read the contents of the tinc config files? Is there a better solution , should full drive encryption be used and dedicated servers? Regards Yazeed Fataar

Hi Guus Can you recommend a good strategy in securely managing the config and hosts files please? <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> This email has been sent from a virus-free computer protected by Avast. www.avast.com

Hello, to start could you tell us what version of OpenWrt are you using ? Is it a stable release ? and what version of tinc you are trying to install ? if it is just a problem with the tun/tap module, on OpenWrt you have not modprobe, so you should use insmod insmod tun Saverio

The router I am running tinc on has 3.8.10 and is several years old. I built that image myself but it was based on Barrier Breaker r36499. You may want to find a more recent build -- for example a

Thanks Guus.. So if someone had to gain access to my vm-disk. They would not be able to view the contents of the files in ""etc/tinc" if I do "sudo chmod go= /etc/tinc" .. My paranoia is around a VPS provider who had admin access to all containers. I know that I have to create a root password that will allow only myself root access , but im just worried about the disk

I cannot use dynamic dns , the remote sites connect through 4G LTE and get assigned "Private Addresses" that are NATd to a Public Address. The LTE clients can only make connections outward to the Internet and features such as PAT and Dynamic DNS will not work. Therfor for these remote sites I need a Central Server Located on Internet to peer with in order for the Site to Site connection

Hi Maxim The reason I have two kernel is as follows. When I did fresh install of openwrt , i tried "opkg install tinc" . It then said "dependency required , kernel (= 3.3.8-1-" as I was on 2.6.31. I then downloaded 3.3.8-1 and did opkg install kernel. And this is how I have both...I think i just need to get a better image to start off with...Ill search and get back to you.

Hi Yazeed, it depends on your arch. This is really OpenWRT specific. Try to search OpenWRT Wiki. E.g. you can use http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=414386#p414386 Greetings Marek Dr?pal Byl 18.leden 2016 (Pond?l?), kdy? v 13:42:46 (CET) , Yazeed Fataar napsal(a): > Hi Mark > > Im trying to run this as a metarouter instance in mikrotik.
