Hey all,
I'm trying to use tinc 1.0.26 from Homebrew on Mac OS X 10.10.5, and having
some trouble. Is anyone successfully doing this?
Here's my config:
$ sudo cat /etc/tinc/robotvpn/tinc.conf
Name = elendur
Mode = switch
AddressFamily = ipv4
Interface = tincdev0
Compression = 1
ConnectTo = robot_ph_cpe22_04
And here's the invocation:
$ sudo tincd -D -c /etc/tinc/robotvpn -d
tincd 1.0.26 (Nov 2 2015 06:12:50) starting, debug level 1
/dev/tap0 is a Generic BSD tap device
/etc/tinc/robotvpn/tinc-up: line 3: avahi-autoipd: command not found
Usage: ip route list
ip route get ADDRESS
ip route { add | del } ROUTE
ROUTE := PREFIX [ nexthop NH ]
Script tinc-up exited with non-zero status 1
Listening on 0.0.0.0 port 655
Ready
Trying to connect to robot_ph_cpe22_04 (10.27.200.104 port 655)
Connected to robot_ph_cpe22_04 (10.27.200.104 port 655)
Connection with robot_ph_cpe22_04 (10.27.200.104 port 655) activated
Error while writing to Generic BSD tap device /dev/tap0: Input/output error
Error while writing to Generic BSD tap device /dev/tap0: Input/output error
Error while writing to Generic BSD tap device /dev/tap0: Input/output error
I know I'm missing Avahi, and I'll have to deal with name resolution
separately (this config originated on Ubuntu), but I'm trying to understand
what is going on with the BSD tap device issues. Previously, tincd wasn't
able to create the tap0 device at all, but I installed TunTap
<http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net/>, and now it does create it:
$ ifconfig tap0
tap0: flags=8842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 0e:27:1d:a7:4e:a1
media: autoselect
status: active
open (pid 28939)
I tried bypassing the Avahi config and just assigning it an IP manually,
but it doesn't seem able to communicate.
Any pointers what's going on here? Much appreciated,
Mike

Hi. May you show your tinc-up script? And subnet-up, host-up if you have they at all.

Hi Maxim, Not much to it: avahi-autoipd -D $INTERFACE # ifconfig $INTERFACE 169.254.45.23 netmask 255.255.0.0 up ip route add 172.20.0.0/16 dev $INTERFACE Mac OS X doesn't have "ip" by default, so I also installed the Homebrew package "iproute2mac", which provides an emulation of "ip" on top of the legacy ifconfig/route calls. The commented-out ifconfig line was my attempt to replace avahi-autoipd with a fixed IP, just for demonstration purposes. But I get the same result using ifconfig to set the IP address.

It's probably just tap0. Tinc should've warned about this, but it doesn't. The solution is to remove the "Interface = tincdev0" line from your tinc.conf. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus at tinc-vpn.org> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Ah, fantastic. With the following config I get a usable tap0: $ sudo cat /etc/tinc/robotvpn/tinc.conf Name = elendur Mode = switch AddressFamily = ipv4 Device = /dev/tap0 Compression = 1 ConnectTo = robot_ph_cpe22_04 Still need to figure out the Avahi side of things for name resolution, but thanks all!
