Hmmm. Well, I worked on this some more after I noted that someone made it
work by moving the compression line. In fact, there is a problem, and it is
a bit weird. Sorry for running hot and cold on this, but the problem shows
up depending on the order of the options.
The problem was that introduction of the new code to support SHA-256 and
SHA-512 is broken. The instructions from the director are incorrect, or the
new code in the FD is incorrect. In any case, the FD "eats" the next option
which it shouldn't. In looking at this code, it might also have created an
incompatibility with prior Directors, which is something that I wanted to
avoid.
I think you can work around the problem by putting:
signature = SHA1
as the last item in your Options block.
More later.
