Hi,
my deep respect for this beautiful peace of software. It helps a lot
every day.
I was a little astonished because client-configuration-directory files
seemed to be not re-read on
client connect.
I learned from the source that the responsible function only runs on
session-init and not on
session-move. I did´t expect this from reading the man page. The patch
attached introduces a hint
which could save other users a little time. I would be honored if you
consider including it.
Greetings
Andreas Gaufer
