<p dir="ltr">I can confirm it works well. I use tinc to connect to my win 8.1 workstation almost everyday.</p>

<pre>Has anyone tried to use tinc on a Windows 8.1 system? I just did it and noticed, that I am unable to start the service.
<em>c:\Program Files (x86)\tinc\tincd -n vpn tinc.vpn service installed tinc.vpn se</em>rvice started
.. will create and start the service, but not really. The servic exists, but can not be started.
If I start the service manually, I got the following message (translated literally): the service "tinc.vpn" was started on the local computer und stopped afterward. Some services will be stopped automatically, if they will be used independent from other services or applications.
I can start tinc with ..
<em>c:\Program Files (x86)\tinc\tincd -D -n vpn</em>
.. without problems, but have to keep the window open and that's not really useable. ;-)
Any ideas how to fix the problem?
Many thanks!
