Package: tinc Version: 1.0.14-1 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Hi, when using tinc on a laptop or another mobile machine, it increases usability if tinc tries to re-connect its peers immediatelly after a network interface is up (instead of waiting for some retry timer to expire). I think this can be achieved by putting a script in /etc/network/if-up.d that sends SIGALRM to all running tinc instances. I have attached the script I am using, but I guess it can be improved (e.g. maching on executable path, not just binary name).
