Question coming from Discord dev-discussion channel:

> could anyone help me run narhwal locally? Ive spent last 3 days trying to get it to work and am now stuck on one last issue. I have two primarys with 1 worker each and am sending the transaction to primary 0 worker 0 but its getting an error back from primary 1 worker 0 saying primary 1 is not set up  
> primary 1 is definitely set up though because its talking with primary 0 and progressing DAG rounds
