problem with tinc pre5

[Igor Belokopytov]

 Hello,

I have 2 hosts HostA and HostB
HostA - 10.38.9.2, kernel 2.4.16, tincd from Debian package
HostB - 10.38.9.223, kernel 2.2.17-21mdk, tincd from tarball package.

HostA:
------------------------------
/etc/tinc/test4/tinc.conf
Name = HostA
ConnectTo = HostB
TapDevice = /dev/misc/net/tun
PrivateKeyFile = /etc/tinc/test4/rsa_key.priv

/etc/tinc/test4/hosts/HostA
Subnet = 10.0.0.0/8
Port = 8195
Address = 10.38.9.2
-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
...

/etc/tinc/test4/hosts/HostB
Subnet = 10.0.0.0/8
Port = 8195
Address = 10.38.9.223
-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
...

HostB:
----------------------------------------
/usr/local/etc/tinc/test4/tinc.conf
Name = HostA
TapDevice = /dev/tap0
PrivateKeyFile = /usr/local/etc/tinc/test4/rsa_key.priv

/usr/local/etc/tinc/test4/hosts/HostA and .../HostB are the same
