Synergy2 - not managed to connect any workstations

[Connon]

Hi there,

Have tried Synergy2 but it hasn't ever synced though I can see if getting the hostnames from the 'central' service?

I have a laptop (Mac) and Dual book Windows/Linux workstation.

 

Logs for Windows and Mac first.

Ubuntu (17.10)

 

I have docker and various hypervisors installed on some of the systems and I'm wondering if that is causing any issues. I can see some connections are failing on the MAC to connect to the local service sometimes. Can I blacklist any interfaces that it binds to?

 

Thanks,

Connon

It's because of .local at the end of the hostname.
