This thread is a bit old, I know. I just wanted to say: Nevermind.
It seems that the new versions don't support my use case as good as the
2.x-series did (no default pin without a graphical interface or a
self-made helper program, for one thing). Besides, there is - at least
for me - a big lack of documentation on how things should be configured.
In any case, upgrading to 3.x and to an even higher degree 4.x caused
too much work for a thing that used to just work.
Therefore I decided to go back to 2.25 and they there for the near future.
