FW: Almost ...

[Matthijs Hoosemans]

I am using tinc1.0pre1 pre2 is not yet available on the tinc site.
The Var. VpnMask is unknown in version pre1.
Netmask is 255.0.0.0 on tap0 on both gateways.
Still the problem that you can ping the gateway on the other network but not
the machines behind it.
I've used the rpm download.

What version are you using?

(What I'm going to say now is for the 1.0pre2 versions.)

For tinc, the tapdevice must have netmask 255.0.0.0. You don't need to
specify gateways in your routing table, tinc will handle that. Add
"VpnMask=255.0.0.0" to the tinc.conf files on both tinc gateways. The IP
address of the tap device is allowed to have the same IP as the real
ethernet interface of the gateways by the way.
