@subsection Configuration of Darwin (MacOS/X) kernels
Tinc on Darwin relies on a tunnel driver for its data acquisition from the kernel.
-Tinc supports either the driver from @uref{http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~nissler/tuntap/},
+Tinc supports either the driver from @uref{http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net/},
which supports both tun and tap style devices,
and also the driver from from @uref{http://chrisp.de/en/projects/tunnel.html}.
The former driver is recommended.
or PrivateKeyFile
specified in the configuration file.
+@cindex ProcessPriority
+@item ProcessPriority = <low|normal|high>
+When this option is used the priority of the tincd process will be adjusted.
+Increasing the priority may help to reduce latency and packet loss on the VPN.
+
@cindex TunnelServer
@item TunnelServer = <yes|no> (no) [experimental]
When this option is enabled tinc will no longer forward information between other tinc daemons,
Disables encryption and authentication.
Only useful for debugging.
+@item -R, --chroot
+Change process root directory to the directory where the config file is
+located (@file{@value{sysconfdir}/tinc/@var{netname}/} as determined by
+-n/--net option or as given by -c/--config option), for added security.
+The chroot is performed after all the initialization is done, after
+writing pid files and opening network sockets.
+
+Note that this option alone does not do any good without -U/--user, below.
+
+Note also that tinc can't run scripts anymore (such as tinc-down or host-up),
+unless it's setup to be runnable inside chroot environment.
+
+@item -U, --user=@var{user}
+Switch to the given @var{user} after initialization, at the same time as
+chroot is performed (see --chroot above). With this option tinc drops
+privileges, for added security.
