Screen into another Mac
After a wake
Policy block
Full macOS screen sharing over the private connection. Apple’s own, so it behaves exactly as you expect.
It will show its lock screen until someone signs in. Nothing has gone wrong — a lock screen after a wake is the expected outcome, not a failure.
If a rule forbids Screen Sharing, Rig says so in words and names the rule. This is a policy block, not a network problem.
