Tinc not starting but not complaining either

Hi everybody,
I've spent last 16 hours trying to get Tinc working on my two almost
identical linux boxes. Both are running Debian stable with backported
Openssl and self-compiled kernel 2.4.24 with ebtables-patch to enable
bridging firewall. Both firewalls have both masquaraded and just bridged
nets behind (LAN & DMZ) and they are working perfectly. Now I need to
get from my home to the other LAN so that I could f.ex. administer
printers from my home if needed. My home LAN has 10.10.0.0/16 and the
other end's LAN 10.0.0.0/16.
I compiled Tinc on other, faster machine as I do with my kernels and so
far everything went just fine (just for clarification, compiling Tinc on
the target machine didn't work either) but when I try to start Tinc for
the first time, it does nothing. No messages anywhere, no errors,
nothing. Neither side.
Where is the problem? I have read the manual trough with magnifying
glass for several times but can't find any explanation for this.
Hereis conf from my end of line, "Internetti". The other end is named
"Silmu".
