cannot route packet: unknown type 0

[Peter Berends]

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
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame: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.
