Hello, I've been experimenting with tinc to get to know it and I got to point where the tinc service wouldn't start anymore.
Starting with debug options gave me a ".. not a usable Windows TAP Device.. File not found" report. After a lengthy period of digging, I discovered that my registry was littered with connection bindings for all the previous install/uninstall's i'd done with the TAP Driver. Cleaning up this mess fixed the problem and tinc was running again. Google found this report http://osdir.com/ml/network.openvpn.user/2003-12/msg00110.html While this report suggests that the issue has been fixed in XP, my recent experience suggests otherwise? Doing an uninstall of the TAP Driver does not remove the registry bindings. A reboot makes no difference. Appears to be a Windows problem as uninstalling some other virtual driver resulted in the same situation. Anyone have experience/knowledge on this issue ? Kind regards Graham Smith _______________________________________________ tinc mailing list [email protected] http://www.tinc-vpn.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinc
