Yes.

Here's the problem:

HWaddr should be FE:FD:00:00:00:00, and it should also say NOARP. You can fix
this by adding this to the tinc-up script (before anything else):

ifconfig tap0 hw ether fe:fd:0:0:0:0
ifconfig tap0 -arp

You must do so on both sides. Explaining why will take some time though :).
