Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/296

I created a config file as per the example in the readme, and the startup log shows me that the config file has been loaded but the client I have added are just not there, I still have to manually add them. I have double checked that the IP and hostname are correct.

This is my config:

[[clients]]
# position (left | right | top | bottom)
position = "left"
# hostname
hostname = "pc1"
# activate this client immediately when lan-mouse is started
activate_on_startup = true
# optional list of (known) ip addresses
ips = ["192.168.178.XX"]

Turns out the latest release is just super outdated and I had to install the lan-mouse-git AUR package and now I also have proper client authorization and fingerprints.

Yeah I'm unfortunately pretty busy until next week. Hopefully will get the next release out soon

Once I got it working, it was working well! Excited for the next release and hope clipboard functionality comes soon too! Thank you!
