If elegos does not have a real public IP (it's behind NAT after all),
then you shouldn't put any Address statements in hosts/elegos (neither
on your or his computer).

To debug your problem, run tinc with the following command:

tincd -n vpn -d5 -D

If the information it logs does not help you fix the problem, send me a
copy of it, so I can have look.
