protocol error, kicking client (dies in system-wide mode upon tunnel connection from network client)

[towolf]

I have installed 0.9.12 from a prelinary testing repository (ja, Ubuntu) and I can observe that the server exits immediately after startup at the point when an avahi-enabled client PA connects (same version, same packages).

I will paste both outputs from server and client below

These are actually two issues.

For system-wide mode, make sure to set exit-idle-time=0 in daemon.conf, since the default is now to exit when we are idle (which doesn't make sense in sytem mode however).

The other issue is a real bug.

[lennart]

OK, the protocol error is now fixed in current git.
