Hello,

I have a bunch of questions about configuring tinc. Here we go:

1. Is the /etc/tinc/vpn/passphrases directory still used? If so, what is it 
for? Do we need to create it when installing tinc from source?

2. As far as I understand, MyVirtualIP is not required in tinc.conf and is 
only used to pass the IP to tinc-* scripts. Is that correct? If so, how can 
we use it? I could not find much about this option in the documentation so 
if I am missing something, could you clarify?

3. If I only have two hosts that comprise a VPN, would it be ok to specify:

Subnet=192.168.1.1/32
and
Subnet=192.168.1.2/32

on both hosts, respectively? Or should I use

Subnet=192.168.1.0/24 on both hosts?

4. I noticed that there are a couple of things that are not present in the 
latest release but are still referred to in some documents, such as genreq 
and /etc/tinc/nets.boot. I assume that genreq is now obsolete and we should 
use tinc -K instead, correct?

Thanks,
Oleg
