Post subject:  Confusion about NRServer/Client. Default server IP?

I am running the Linux version.

I started up my nrserver just fine. People can connect to it just fine.

I have a few issues that are causing me confusion and the docs are not answering the question. The docs 'try' to answer the question but leave me just as stumped as before reading them.

Question 1: Is there a default server IP? Is it the DHCP Subnet?
Question 2: Do I need to join the server if my client 'is' the server?
Question 3: If not, I cannot connect locally at all. No Errors to go by for this... Nothing. How would I accomplish this?

I've tried using the neorouter domain. The Local IP of the device and 127.0.0.1 Nothing seems to work on this computer or any within the local network.

Yes there is a default IP and Subnet - as you said clients can connect... look these adapter configs to resolve them...
Code:
ifconfig <interface>

Well... 127.0.0.1, called localhost is your loopback. The machine identifies itself with this address whether there is a local network or not.

ifconfig shows nothing different which is what confuses me. Previous VPN's I've setup manually have created a tap or tun device to do the VPN. This is not created. I know what a loopback device is already but thanks ;).

Do I need to change the features .ini to point the the correct
Code:
ifconfig <interface>
?

if you just type ifconfig, there should be a new interface called nrtab or something like that...

thats the interface you're looking for

Code:
$ systemctl list-unit-files | grep nrserver
nrserver.service                           enabled


Code:
$ ifconfig | grep nr


No such device has been created... That could be my issue...
