Setting the --tcp flag to false, inletsctl still creates an exit-node in tcp mode

[Johan Siebens]

Setting the --tcp flag to false, inletsctl still creates an exit-node in tcp mode unless --letsencrypt-domain is also provided

Expected Behaviour

Created exit node is running in TCP mode.

Current Behaviour

Created exit node is running in HTTP mode.

Possible Solution

Two options:

• An exit node created with --tcp=false is running in HTTP mode
• When running --tcp=false, validate if --letsencrypt-domain is also set and return error if not

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Create and exit node without the --letsencrypt-domain and with --tcp=false

$ inletsctl create --provider scaleway --secret-key <redacted> --organisation-id <redacted> --tcp=false

Is this still an issue and was it only with Scaleway? @jsiebens
