hi im a newbie to networking and vpns.so plz pardon my mistakes. i installed tinc 1.0.9 and followed the tinc setup instructions as in the tinc-windows example. after i hav started the tinc service with tincd -n command the service starts and then stops abrupty giving the message " the tinc.test service on the local computer has started and then stopped.Some services stop automatically if they hav no work to do for example the performance logs and alerts" when i try to restart the service it gives the same msg and stops. could anyone plz help me.
run; tincd -n test -d5 -D this will just run tinc from the command prompt, and you'll be able to see what any errors are.
