podman ignores default system connection setting

[peedy2495]

Hello,
before I start to create a bug-issue I'm not shure if it is an bug ...
Host: ubuntu 22.04 using podman 4.9.0 (alt. 4.8.2)
Client fedora 38 using podman 4.9.0 (alt. 4.8.2)

I configured client system connections via ssh for both existent machine-urls and alternative for my testuser to the remote host.
I'm able to handle the remote host with 'pdman --remote ...', but normal 'podman ...' always points to the local socket althogh the default system connection points to a remote one.

I'm trying to get podman desktop to handle a remote instance.

Podman default to local mode.

You can change this behavior with containers.conf with something like:

[Engine]
remote=true

Commandline is working now ...
Now, podman desktop is another repo for further probs ;-)
