Do not use periods in the hostname.
The hostname is being used to create the Name in tinc.conf
However man tinc.conf contains this
Name = name [required]
This is the name which identifies this tinc daemon. It must
be unique for the virtual private network this daemon will connect to.
The Name may only consist of alphanu-
meric and underscore characters.
If Name starts with a $, then the contents of the environment
variable that follows will be used. In that case, invalid characters will
be converted to underscores. If
Name is $HOST, but no such environment variable exist, the
hostname will be read using the gethostnname() system call.
Also for a new network from scratch use --add instead of --new.
Still looking at tinc_rollout.
This email was sent using an existing tinc network which includes a self
hosted mail server on a vps.
The ip address of the mail server is 10.9.5.2, now waiting for my copy of
this email back to see what the headers are.

There's been some recent work on Tinc that I'm really excited about.
Also, I just re-discovered an email featuring old work on Tinc that I
completely forgot about. If you're interested in Tinc, check out
tinc_rollout (github.com/jvasile). I'm pretty sure this is what the FBX
should use to connect peers. The only obviously missing piece is
opening firewall ports per subnet. FreedomBuddy can be used to exchange
Tinc configuration details, and that's PGP-key specific, so we've pretty
much handled the all-important exchange of authentication details.
Poke at it, let me know what you think.
