I would add "if you know what you are doing", otherwisethe average Joe
will think that he can just add "--allow-recursive-routing" to his
config and the problem is fixed.
"If you know what you are doing" is no help
because they all "_know what they are doing_" ...
My understanding is as follows:
Recursive-routing means that I send encrypted packets, which are
destined for the public IP of the peer address, over the tunnel.
Instead of over the internet (or other common network).
Considering the loops which the receiver will have to jump
though to accept these packets, I question the validity of
documenting this "feature" --allow-recursive-routing, at all.
