From 6478c1f359e6b0ea2046d9e2801830753e53c06a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gert Doering Date: Sun, 24 May 2015 15:02:34 +0200 Subject: Disallow usage of --server-poll-timeout in --secret key mode. The internal machinery wants TLS for this to work, so just add this to the (long) list of options not allowed unless either --tls-client or --tls-server is active. For added sanity, add an ASSERT() call to the place where this combination caused a NULL ptr reference, and document the restriction.
