Originally posted by **fooryo** May 9, 2024 Idea came from a typo on a yml file. My yaml was like: ``` lighthose: [...] hosts: - stuff in here ``` but `nebula-service -test -config host.yml` just told me: `WARN[0000] No lighthouse.hosts configured, this host will only be able to initiate tunnels with static_host_map entries` I know that the message is self explanatory but could be and idea that it reports also something like `there is no lighthose on nebula config yaml schema` or `lighthose key is not an expected key`? A json/yaml schema could also help with the fact that a lighthouse config should not have any lighthouse.hosts in the yaml ( I didnt research why tho ) and helps with a manual writing of such config files. Thanks
