Yes.

tinc should also work with the driver from the OpenVPN guys, because it
has exactly the same API. If you use the CIPE driver, you could also try
to run "cipsrvr remove" and see if that helps.

Are you using Windows 2000 or XP?

You could start tinc with "tincd -d10 --logfile=C:\tinc.log" or
something like that, and send us the logs from when it crashes.

You could also try to install MinGW and compile tinc yourself, maybe
that could make a difference.
