Hello!
I am attempting to get tinc running between two machines and would
appreciate any guidance one could lend. I have read through all of the
documentation and feel that I am close but missing something silly.
First Machine: (gerry)

The host files are the same on this machine.
When I try to ping from the first machine (gerry) to the second machine (penguin26) I get this in the log files from (gerry)

When I do a tcpdump on testvpn (the tun device) I can see the echo requests (no echo replys though!!)
When I do a tcpdump on eth1 I can see upd packets on the proper port leaving as well.
On the other system (penguin26) I see nothing really happening in the logs:

Jan 18 11:10:03 penguin126 last message repeated 3 times
So my question is what is the: "Cannot route packet: unknown type ffbf"
error message about?
I hope I have provided enough information (I know I stated the hostname as
penguin26 for the config file but the actual hostname is penguin126, but
that should be ok.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Gerry
