Subject: Add warnings for bad combinations of Device and Interface.
X-Git-Tag: release-1.0.27~18
X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2f03a5d;p=oweals%2Ftinc.git

Add warnings for bad combinations of Device and Interface.

On Linux, the name of the tun/tap interface can be set freely. However,
on most other operating systems, tinc cannot change the name of the
interface. In those situations, it is possible to specify a Device and
an Interface that conflict with each other. On BSD, this can cause
$INTERFACE to be set incorrectly, on Windows, this results in a
potentially unreliable way in which a TAP-Win32 interface is selected.
