Just in each tincd's own host config file. It indeed is a bit confusing,
perhaps I'll make it so that it will also read these options from tinc.conf.

That's correct. Although with 1.0.11 it is not necessary to add PMTU = 1280; if
the path MTU is unknown (which it is before PMTU discovery is finished) it will
forward packets via TCP so they will always arrive at the destination.
