During initial setup, did you specify to federate with yourself? Clicking the instances link at the bottom of your page, shows:
If you specify an instance to explicitly federate with, all other instances are disallowed.
When I go look in the admin settings, both Allowed and Disallowed boxes are blank, but it's possible I put my host in somewhere I wasn't supposed to in the configs. Let me double check that, where in the configs files would I be looking?
Sorry I have no idea. I've just never seen an instance "linked" to itself. Something is definitely wrong. Might be easier to blow away the database and start again.
I just started this about 15 minutes ago, so this is as clean as it gets. I must have just missed something somewhere.
