Hello, I just read this document, especially the section about Tinc : http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/linux_vpn.txt It's an old one, but i would like to know the state of the Tinc security level for now. I don't scared about possible security weakness of Tinc because i only use it over our internal operator network (MPLS), but maybe one day will come the need to connect a remote node (over the "hostile Internet") to the core network, then security consideration will be the most important.
