That sounds like your Fossil instance allows anonymous cloning but not anonymous checkins, and that you did not give a user name with the clone command, so that when you tried to check in a change (or sync, as you say) the remote server refused to accept the anonymous contribution.
Note in my examples above the `myuser@` part.

The specific one you pointed me to shows exactly the problem I describe above. The URL "http://pi:8193" http://pi:8193" gives a machine name and a port, but no user name.
Fossil will use your local user name as the Fossil user in some circumstances, but not in the clone command, because that signals an anonymous clone.
