Hi,

When I try to make a VPN connection I get the following errors:

On the client (debug level 5):

Mar 19 16:10:45 mail tinc[1784]: tincd 1.0pre3 (Mar 16 2001 14:53:52)
starting, debug level 5 Mar 19 16:10:45 mail tinc[1784]: Ready: listening on

Mar 19 16:10:45 mail tinc[1784]: Closing connection with motosoto (195.38.205.202)


On the server (started with tincd -ddddd (debug level 5):

Mar 19 17:09:19 vpn tinc[670]: tincd 1.0pre3 (Mar  9 2001 11:48:06)

starting, debug level 5
Mar 19 17:10:01 vpn tinc[675]: Ready: listening on port 655 

It looks like the SEGV signal is the cause of the trouble.
But what is a SEGV signal and how can I solve this problem?

Regards,

Marcel Loesberg
