Did you get it to work at all so far?
Now the question is if the receiver inferred a wrong IP address from the 
Broadcast packet (received via UDP on Port 10500 as far as I know), thus 
sending the R1 to nirvana. In any other case, i.e. if tcpdump shows the R1 
packet on the sender, the problem's probably not associated with the fall-back. 
Log files would be quite helpful in any case.

Fall-back mechanism failure

Status in Host Identity Protocol for Linux: New

Bug description:
If the hip daemon can't resolve an address with hip_map_id_to_addr, it tries to 
broadcast an I1 message using standard interfaces.

This fallback mechanism is in my and Renes opinion useless and should be 
stripped out.

The cause of failing in my particular case was that I mounted /etc/hip/hosts 
with fuse and the fopen function failed to open it, even though hipd had root 
rights.
