Hi!
When I try to use tinc I get this message 'Cannot route packet: unknown type
0' when I try to ping or ssh to the box I'm connected to.
Below is my setup:
ifconfig tun device:
--------------------
midkemia Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FD:00:00:00:00
inet addr:192.168.6.1 Bcast:192.168.6.255 Mask:255.255.0.0

TX packets:96 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:8982 (8.7 Kb)
tinc.conf:
--------------------
# file: /etc/tinc/midkemia/tinc.conf
#
# The name of this tinc host.
Name = Darkness
# The internet host(s) to connect with.
# Comment these out to make yourself a listen-only connection.
ConnectTo = Disorder
# The tap device tinc will use.
# Default is /dev/tap0
TapDevice = /dev/net/tun
# Bind tinc to a single interface. By default tinc will
# listen to all interfaces for incomming connections.
# Interface = ppp0
# Number of seconds before encryption will have expired.
# 60s x 60m x 24h x 365 = 1 year (because of bug!!)
KeyExpire = 31536000
# The file in which the private key for this host is stored.
PrivateKeyFile = /etc/tinc/midkemia/rsa_key.priv
output of route:

When I do a tcpdump I only see the ping requests on device midkemia, though
nothing on ppp0.
Thanks in advance,
Peter.

Can you tell me exactly which version of tinc you are using, which version of the Linux kernel and the commands you used to configure device midkemia? -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus@sliepen.warande.net> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Sure, (b.t.w. extremely quick answer ;), I use linux Mandrake 8.0 with a custom 2.4.3 kernel (with tun/tap enabled in the kernel, not as a module). To create the device I used a tinc-up script which has the following contents: #!/bin/sh # This file sets up the tap device. # It gives you the freedom to do anything you want with it. # Use the correct name for the tap device: # For ethertap this is tap0, tap1, tap2 etcetera, # but for the universal tun/tap device use $NETNAME. # Set hardware ethernet address (required!) ifconfig $NETNAME hw ether fe:fd:0:0:0:0 # Give it the right ip and netmask. Remember, the subnet of the # tap device must be larger than that of the individual Subnets # as defined in the host configuration file! ifconfig $NETNAME 192.168.6.1 netmask 255.255.0.0 -arp Then I fire up 'tincd -n midkemia' and the device is created. I used tinc version 1.0pre4 using these command-line options for configure: --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/s hare/man --infodir=/usr/share/info I tried to compile the CVS version but that didn't work (a lot of errors about undeclared variables and stuff). Thanks again (also for the fastest reply I have ever had)!
