Client doesn't communicate with remote FAHControl unless I'm logged in

Here's my current setup:

Client:
Ubuntu Linux 22.04
FAHClient 7.6.21

Control/Client:
macOS 10.15 (Catalina)
FAHControl 7.6.21
FAHClient 7.6.21
FAHViewer 7.6.21

The client is running fine; it's running as a daemon and processing 24/7. However, in order for FAHControl to connect to the client, I have to be logged into the client (Ubuntu) system. It's running as a daemon, so I don't see any reason for that to be the case.

I did have the client running as a snap originally, but when I tried to connect from an external control program, the connection failed. This appears (from what I've seen online) to be an issue with Snap, so I removed the FAH snap and installed the package from the FAH web site. Removing the snap also removed its configuration.

I've looked at the log, and don't see anything there, and haven't (so far) found anything that would indicate why this is happening.

Any thoughts or additional troubleshooting ideas?

Here's my config on the client:

Code: Select all

<config>
  <!-- Folding Slot Configuration -->
  <gpu v='false'/>

  <!-- HTTP Server -->
  <allow v='127.0.0.1 [my internal subnet].0/24'/>

  <!-- Network -->
  <proxy v=':8080'/>

  <!-- Remote Command Server -->
  <password v='[ssshhh!]'/>

  <!-- Slot Control -->
  <power v='full'/>

  <!-- User Information -->
  <passkey v='[my passkey]'/>
  <user v='[my username]'/>

  <!-- Folding Slots -->
  <slot id='0' type='CPU'/>
</config>
