Has anyone managed to set up pangolin clients? (piefed.social)

Ive been using pangolin for a couple weeks now. So far so good. All my publicly exposed services work like a charm.

I'm now trying to set up some private resources and this is where I'm struggling a bit. I can set up a client on my phone through the android app and one on my laptop through the CLI.

They connect fine until I create a private resource. The second I have a private resource, the clients fail to connect and just throw timeouts.

If I delete the private resources, they clients connect again without issue.

That kind of makes the VPN side of pangolin unusable. Has anyone else seen this?

Maybe resource takes over the IP of one of the clients?

It was much simpler than that. I just forgot to open the firewall for the client port.

As if by magic, it all works now
