Hi Daniel, Yes, thanks and I should have mentioned that I am using pretty much the same thing you suggested on my routers, but for whatever reason couldn’t get that approach working on the linux box in question.
Mark, Thanks for the upstart script. I had tried to do the same myself but couldn’t get my upstart script to work right. I was missing the ‘-D’ flag in my script. Added that and now it’s working great. > On Jan 29, 2016, at 8:42 AM, Mark Lopez <[email protected]> wrote: > > I’ve been having the same issue with Ubuntu, thankfully we have access to > Upstart: > > ``` > start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE!=lo) > stop on stopping network-services > > author "Mark Lopez" > description "Tinc Upstart Job" > version "0.1" > > env network=master > > respawn > > exec /usr/sbin/tincd -n "$network" -D --debug=3 --logfile > ``` > > I removed the default init script and switched over to Upstart.
