My crystalball is probably a bit more reliable today ...

I just checked the source code quickly, and it certainly looks like
- --tls-exit depends on tls-server or tls-client.  Or to say it easier,
it requires --key, --cert and --ca in the config file.  (--server and
- --client are kind of macros, which then implies enabling --tls-server
or --tls-client, but bot requires --key, --cert and --ca)

So if your configuration file does not have --tls-exit explicitly
mentioned, it sounds like it's the GUI doing this.  I would then
probably report it as a GUI bug [1].


kind regards,

David Sommerseth
