Make Warpinator work with services like ZeroTier. #73

Hey, first of all, thank you for this great program/app... So far is the best option ever for sending files over a network between computers and/or phones (there's a Warpinator app on the F-droid and it works wonderfully!)...

One thing I'd love to be able to do is to connect devices on a virtual network like the ZeroTier service ( https://www.zerotier.com/ )

As far as I understand, ZeroTier creates another Network Interface in the device (PC or Phone) and lets those devices communicate through it like if they were in a LAN connection. I have used it to even do VNC connections and it works as intended, but Warpinator doesn't allow me to "pick" which Network Interface to use in my device. Maybe an option in the settings to do that would be the only thing we need (easier said than done, I know).

Anyway, thank you very much again for such a great app!

Hi, with 1.2.4 you can now select the interface to use - let me know if that resolves your issue - if not I'll try and set a network up to troubleshoot it.

It doesn't work in 1.2.4. It does in 1.2.6. Maybe #111 is related ?

I'll try to get a test setup of ZeroTier

For met it worked quite well when using ZeroTier by selecting the interface to use.
