Sample tinc+server config for an ethernet-bridged setup.

tinc-sample

This is a set of sample configuration files, etc. for tincd.

Use this if…

  • You have (a) roadwarrior(s) connecting to a gateway.
  • You want the roadwarrior to be bridged to the LAN because you need broadcast / multicast packets to be forwarded.

Why?

I have a fleet of Linux boxen at home, and one Windows PC for gaming. This WinPC has Steam. Steam has in-home streaming. I am not at home. I want to be able to game from anywhere on the island, while offloading rendering to my desktop. With this and SSH, I can carry around a weenie laptop instead of a monster.

How?

Refer to the server directory for configuring the tinc server.

Refer to the client directory for Linux clients. (WIP)

Refer to the client-osx directory for OS X clients.

If you can get this working on Windows, I'll gladly accept contributions to a client-win directory.
