[SOLVED] People of Lemmy. I’m trying (and failing) to get a friend onto my Tailnet. These are the steps: (1) I send them an invite. (2) They accept it. (3) I approve it. (4) They open the app and login. And … nothing. They don’t show up as connected on my admin panel and they can’t access any of my connected machines (IP address is fine). I feel like I’m missing something really obvious but can’t see what it is. Any ideas?
EDIT: All fixed. Needed to share machine directly, but this doesn’t work for regular users. Once I deleted them as a user and then shared it was all good. Thanks everyone!

Firstly, what type of things are you trying to allow your friend to do on your tailnet? I’ve had trouble in the past trying to get friends to connect to game servers across tailnets, but have been fine connecting friends to things like Jellyfin. Any information on this might be helpful to look over.
Secondly, Have you checked out the ACLs? Access controls to your network can sometimes make things not play nice. Here is the docs on managing your Access control list.
