If you can exclude simple external reasons (i.e. packet filtering rules 
per interfaces or routing issues), you can try putting tinc in "verbose" 
mode (SIGINT on POSIX for tinc 1.0.x). Starting with a minimal conf 
always helps in these cases. Also, posting platforms and versions (both 
of OSs and tinc) could help someone switching on the light bulb.

Ciao,
