[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!

    Why do they need to be part of your Tailnet? I usually just share a single machine.

      Even that doesn’t work. I’ve made them an admin on the machine but they get a message saying they already have access to it. But … they don’t!

      Actually this fixed it. Thanks! They can access if I share it but NOT if I add them as a user and then share it. I had to delete them as a user first 🤷‍♂️
