Error creating a new tailnet.

[nack0]

Hi,
I'm having problems creating a new tailnet. I was unable to track down the problem. Apologies if it's something obvious and not an ionscale issue. Thank you for anytime you spend on this.

Info:

Version: 0.18.0
Platform: Docker
DNS Provider: Cloudflare
OIDC Provider: Google

Error:

I also get the "Server: Error: unavailable: dial tcp [::1]:8443: connect: connection refused" Error Message when trying to create a new tailnet or even getting the version number with "ionscale version". OIDC is configured and I'm able to authenticate via "ionscale auth login --addr https://ionscale.my.url". Would be great to be pointed in the right direction. Log Level Debug not really helping.

Yep, @renekuehl your there, you just need to append --addr for every command, so in the OP question,

ionscale --addr="myserver.com" tailnets create --name "cloud"

Thank you for hinting in the right Direction ;)
