|

Each tinc daemon should have a name that is unique in the network which it will be part of.

The name will be used by other tinc daemons for identification.

To make things easy,

choose something that will give unique and easy to remember names to your tinc daemon(s).
|
||||
You could try things like hostnames, owner surnames or location names.
|
||||
However, you are only allowed to use alphanumerical characters (a-z, A-Z, and 0-9) and underscores (_) in the name.
