+
+ The croc rc script now honors an optional croc_host variable that binds
+ the relay to a specific local address instead of all interfaces.
+
+ This is needed on hosts with IP forwarding enabled (typically routers),
+ where the "croc relay" startup self-check connects to the wildcard
+ address (0.0.0.0) and fails with "network is unreachable", causing the
+ relay to exit immediately. If your relay does not stay running, set a
+ local address of the host in /etc/rc.conf, for example:
+
+ croc_host="192.0.2.1"
+
+ Leaving croc_host empty (the default) keeps the previous behavior of
+ listening on all interfaces.
