[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!

Its a great thing to check. All of the issues I've ever had with tailscale stem from the ACLs. Its.Always.the.ACLs.

My favorite is when there is just a tiny footnote on the docs at the bottom that says ~"if you do this maybe check your acls because its not gonna work without changing them"~
