Machines: requests to a specific machine?

Hmm, on a running fly machine I can’t seem to connect to any ports on $FLY_PUBLIC_IP, either an internal_port or the external one, either from the client or within ssh to the machine itself. What am I missing?

I can see why services.ports / services.internal_ports aren’t accessible when connecting to FLY_PUBLIC_IP directly…

Though, one must be able to (I haven’t used it in a long time myself, so it may have stopped working) connect to FLY_PUBLIC_IP over experimental.allowed_public_ports (ref, via).

Note, connecting straight to FLY_PUBLIC_IP may bypass (I am not sure) Fly Edge (and its handlers, DDoS protection, etc).
