You should replace en0 with the literal text $INTERFACE. Tinc will then
fill in the correct interface name, which would be tun0 in your case
instead of en0. Also, tun0 is a point-to-point device, so you probably
have to specify the destination address as well, like:

ifconfig $INTERFACE 192.168.82.1 192.168.81.1 netmask 255.255.0.0

The destination address doesn't mean much though, it doesn't really matter
what you put there.

The latest version of tinc is 1.0.3. Please try that one and see if you
still have the same errors.
