I have monerod running on a computer in my LAN, let's pretend the local IP is 10.0.0.9. I want to mine with another computer on the same LAN but not have to download the whole chain. So I run the wallet CLI on another computer, like this:
./monero-wallet-cli --daemon-host 10.0.0.9
but in addition to giving me warnings about using an untrusted daemon, it throws the error that the wallet failed to connect to it.
There's no firewall running on the computer running monerod, and both machines are on the same subnet.
What I would really like is to have a way to just have the other computers mine on behalf of the wallet on my self-managed node. I don't understand why the other computers also need wallets in order to mine. But that might be neither here nor there, since I can't connect to my daemon anyway.
