macOS to macOS via brew
I've only just discovered ET so please forgive any newbie errors. I'm connecting between two Macs both running the latest version of Catalina (10.15.3). I've installed EternalTerminal via brew on both systems (6.0.5).
I can connect fine and the connection persists, however when I put one machine to sleep, wait a couple of hours, then wake up, I get a crash appear in the log on the always on Mac and a disconnect on the client.

The path at the end of that (/tmp/et-20200202-86706-1i3ksq6) doesn't appear to exist so I can't look there for further information. Am I doing something obviously stupid?
Many thanks for any pointers that someone could offer.
When connecting to OS/X systems, you need to pass --prefix=/usr/local/bin to the et command
Quick follow up if people find this: in older releases of the et client binary, the option was --prefix and requires a full path to the etterminal binary (--prefix=/usr/local/bin/etterminal) but has been replaced with the --terminal-path option to make it clear (since it actually wasn't a prefix). Alternatively you can use the --macserver option which does exactly this if etterminal is in /usr/local/bin.
