Trivial setup question

[Charles Burnett]

I apologize for the late reply -- I've been swamped at work and did not have 
time to test your suggestion.

I added "Mode = switch" into both the home and laptop tinc.conf files, 
configured a bridge on the home machine with the LAN and TINC interfaces as 
slaves, et voila! It works!

Thank you very much, Guus!
