Description of Issue
This morning I started having the “Waiting for core” errors in my MacBookPro client. To troubleshoot, I closed the client on my MBP before jumping onto the core and looking at logs planning to restart the core. I noticed the following errors in the logs over and over again where the core was continuing to try to communicate with the MBP client (“work-macbook @ 192.168.1.203”) even after I had closed the MPB client:

After restarting the core and repeating the same steps above, I do see the core try to connect to the client once, fail, and stop trying, so it seems something was going on with the core before a restart that kept it stuck in the retry loop over and over.
No real action/response needed from me, just wanted to log the bug/issue. Thanks!
