Solved: Unable to access from a Linux PC

First of all, sorry for the late reply. Life got in the way of things really hard and this issue took a nosedive in priorities.

If it works then Garuda is the problem and you need to take it up with the Garuda Devs.
If it doesn't work still then maybe the networking hardware on your laptop ?
Are you using Wifi or ethernet to connect ?

I ended up switching to Ubuntu because I decided to install it alongside Win11 in my laptop. Web UI works fine. I can stream audio through the Browser, but now VLC complains about being unable to open MRL in the domain if I use http://moode.local:8000. Thankfully, streaming straight from the device's IP work as usual. It's an improvement at least, and as I suspected, it had to do with the distro.

What happens with the https only disabled?  Does the address bar say "http" and you still cannot connect, or does the address bar still show https?

It was showing only HTTP. So it happened regardless of it being HTTP or HTTPS.

So we seem to be addressing two different questions here.

1) does your LInux host support mDNS, e.g., can it resolve the fully qualified domain name "moode.local" to an IP address?
2) does your browser(s) allow you to access an HTTP server as opposed to an HTTPS server?

You could have answered the first question simply by using ping on the FQDN instead of the IP address. Here, for example, I ping one moOde player ("sunroom") from another ("m839") on my LAN

Code:
i@m839:~ $ ping -c 1 sunroom.local
PING sunroom.local (10.0.0.19) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from sunroom.local (10.0.0.19): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=55.7 ms

--- sunroom.local ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 55.710/55.710/55.710/0.000 ms


As for the second question, I don't know what the Garuda folks have done in their distro and I have no interest in wading through their documentation so I quite like Bob's suggestion that you try running a different, known to work,  OS from USB stick.

I was able to reach the IP. One of the screenshots I attached to a previous post showed the ping being able to reach it. Using the domain name, however, didn't work. But since changing OS made me able to reach the domain again, I guess there isn't much of a point to try once more.

I guess next time I'll double check if a distro properly supports multicast DNS or not. But still, thanks for the suggestions and ideas.  Smile
