Troubleshooting • Re: Connection Refused Error

Pi5 implies Bookworm. Bookworm implies Network Manager. Unless things have changed in the last week or so NM doesn't like DHCPless networks and won't bring up the interface on the Pi.

With you on that.

In which case I'd expect a failure in name resolution (e.g. Could not resolve hostname foo.local: Name or service not known) rather than "permission denied".

OP says, twice, the error is "Connection refused"


(But I agree there is uncertainty around how the client would know to what host it is supposed to be making a connection.)

Oops. Dunno why I made that mistake. Probably best to ignore everything I said regarding "permission denied" as it's clearly irrelevant.
