Ok, so I have an app listening on 5984, deployed to two machines (ord & bos). I’m able to access it via `localhost` on the machine, and I’m able to access it over flycast.

However, machines can’t seem to access other instances–`{mid}.vm.{app}.internal` resolves but is not connectable, `curl` reports every address is inaccessible with `curl -v http://{app}.internal:5984/`, and using the IP directly fails.

They have been paused and resumed a bunch?

This one sounds like you might be listening on IPv4 but not IPv6… What does `ss -tnlp` (or similar) show?

(The 6PN is strictly IPv6.)

u have to use `.flycast` so the proxy can wake up your 😴 machines.

Yup, that’s it. It’s listening on `0.0.0.0` only.
