Mike,
many  thanks for advice.We were not aware about problem with mix route and
iproute2. Anyway, it didn't solve the problem, we added the routing policy
commands after the problem occurs to remedy it.
It seems that the problem is connected with the fact the incoming
connection is direct to tinc node and outcoming  is routed via router to
tinc interface.
Kind regards
Kveto
