tinc open-source VPN daemon
tinc is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) daemon that uses tunnelling and encryption to create a secure private network between hosts on the Internet.
*** tinc-vpn on armhf architectures will be available soon. ***
Setup: You must manually connect interfaces to the snap:
sudo snap connect tinc-vpn:network-control
sudo snap connect tinc-vpn:network-manager
sudo snap connect tinc-vpn:network-observe
sudo snap connect tinc-vpn:network-setup-control
Then create a directory in /var/snap/tinc-vpn/ called tinc, where you will store configuration files:
sudo mkdir /var/snap/tinc-vpn/tinc
Lastly, set permissions as follows:
sudo chown username:username /var/snap/tinc-vpn/tinc -R
sudo chmod 775 /var/snap/tinc-vpn/tinc -R
After this, follow usual instructions on tinc homepage...
When referencing command tinc-vpn.tincd, you must provide two options:
-c /var/snap/tinc-vpn/tinc/(netname) --pidfile=/run/shm/snap.tinc-vpn.tinc.pid
and run 'tinc-vpn.tincd' using root privileges e.g. sudo or otherwise. This is to allow tincd to access the virtual tun network device on Linux.
