Description Steve Dickson 2021-09-13 20:05:52 UTC
Description of problem:
Using 'synergys --debug WARNING' to start the server 
errors out with "Synergy 1.13.1: [2021-09-13T15:43:27] FATAL: unknown screen name `valid-hostname`". With 'valid-hostname' being the hostname
of the server (aka localhost)

Now I know 'valid-hostname' is valid because
host 'valid-hostname' gives the valid ip and
host 'valid-ip' gives the valid hostname.
Plus ping 'valid-hostname' works as well.

One caveat... Neither 'valid-hostname' or 'valid-ip'
are in the defined in the DNS server... They are only 
defined in /etc/hosts. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
synergy-1.13.1.41-2.fc34.x86_64

How reproducible:
use synergys

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Define the local hostname (aka the synergy server)
only in /etc/hosts not in the DNS server which 
is defined in  /etc/resolv.conf which is the 
systemd-resolved daemon in F34

1. start synergys --debug WARNING

Actual results:
synergys fails but does not exit

Expected results:
To work.

Note... The problem goes away when I downgrade to synergy-1.12.0-2.fc34

Comment 2 David Kaufmann 2021-09-14 16:53:36 UTC
There is now an update to synergy. I don't know if this fixes the issue, please test.

Does the output of `hostname` match the configured host name in synergy?

Fixes the problem for me!

Yes hostname matches both the server hosts in the screeens and links sections.
