problems setting up tinc.

[Johannes Walch]

I just tried to set up a tinc test installation, but I guess I did
something wrong, because I can only ping one direction.

Here's my setup

(lan1,192.168.99.0)<-->firewall1<-vpn->firewall2<-->(lan2,192.168.100.0)

firewall1 has tap0 on 192.168.88.2
firewall2 has tap0 on 192.168.88.3

i set up the following routes :
on firewall1 : 192.168.100.0 gw firewall2(192.168.88.3)
on firewall2 : 192.168.99.0 gw firewall1(192.168.88.2)

firewall2 is the "server" (does not connect) and firewall1 connects to it.
A link is established on server start and I can ping the eth address
(192.168.100.1) of firewall2 from firewall1, but not the eth address of
fw1 from fw2.

If I switch fw1 to server and fw2 to client, it works the other way round.
The situation is though, that client can access server eth but server
cannot access client eth.
