tinc - May 2004 - Paths not correct for Windows

Hi there,

I have set everything up as specified in your online sample. However, when I try
and generate the keys, the error "Unable to open config file
tinc.conf".

The path it seems to be looking for is "c:\program
files\tinc/vpn/tinc.conf".
I did try specifying the path, using the -c command but tinc still appends
"/tinc.conf"!

I assume it has something to do with the forward slashes rather than
backslashes?

Any idea how I might be able to solve the problem?

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give me...

Cheers

No, that doesn't matter. I think you have to check if Windows created a file
called tinc.conf.doc or tinc.conf.txt but has hidden the last extension.
