Tinc on MacOs X

Upon startup of the logfile as shown below is produced, and indicates 
some errors.

The aim is to connect from a laptop "BranchB" to the main office "BranchA",

The laptop (iBook G4) is running OsX 10.3.5,
Tun was installed from http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~nissler/tuntap



My questions:
Shouldn't tinc-up exit with status 0?
Why is  an "Invalid name for outgoing connection in 
/usr/local/etc/tinc/OFFICES/tinc.conf line 2" reported?

Thanks
