@elreydetoda 9 ай бұрын

Awesome video! Also, I don't know if someone else has posted this (and its a hack, so know what you're doing when you do it) but if you need to access the TrueNAS dashboard via tailscale (instead of using it as a subnet router) then you can just check the "Host Network" box under the Network Configuration section. tl;dr: the container has access to the same networking your TrueNAS has. Be very careful with this though, and understand what this will do before you do it in production 😅. This effectively gives the tailscale container the same networking capabilities as your TrueNAS host.

@NishanSinghMann 9 ай бұрын

Thank you for posting this. However I'm unable to ping my other machines from within the tailscale container but other machines can ping the tailscale container just fine. Also I'm unable to access other resources within my home network even though exit code and advertise routes is setup as specified in this guide.

@Jaredy89 11 ай бұрын

You can uncheck userspace while setting up tailscale and this will open tailscale to truenas environment, showing up in networks so you can do replications.

@LAWRENCESYSTEMS 11 ай бұрын

I thought that is what that did and I tested it but it still did not allow TrueNAS Scale talk to another TrueNAS scale for things like replication.

Howdy. Great couple of videos that address using tailscale. I am looking to setup my homelab. It's comprised of (3) metal box sql servers (development, test and production) running ontop of unbuntu only, nothing else loaded at present time. Same configuration on all 3 boxes. I am planning on setting up a production server for a client on their work site. I am looking to setting up a backup server to serve as sql backup for their data . Backup server will be located with the other 3 boxes. What's teh best way forward for this use case (Lawrence or anyone can provide insight , i will take advise)

Tom or ANYONE, How can I setup a permissions in a dataset to where I (dad builtin_admin) has full control and want my other users (wife and kid builtin_users) to be able to read and write files if they want, but not be able to delete anyone's files ONLY the ones they created/own? I am able to have each user write files to the dataset but the user that creates the file cannot delete their own file. If I give them modify permissions they can delete anything in the dataset. How do I fix this???

Followed your video and got tailscale connected to my server. Tried the Iphone app and for the life of me cant work out why the server is not available. Tailscale and Immich are both running and ready for connections according to the logs in Truenas Scale. obviously its Immich not talking to Tailscale. Ill keep on investigating. Love the simplicity of your videos Tom.

I just came back to this video as I set up 2 networks (far from each other, kind of few thousands of km) and I have them all in the same headscale network. So I wanted to have a replications between 2 TrueNAS scale servers. But i was looking for tailscale client on TrueNAS - not in the container. Unfortunately you confirmed: not working...

With the recent update I can't get Tailscale to install (stuck in deploying...) unless I void TrueNas support and disable "hostpath security checks"...which I did, and I still can't finish installing tailscale.

"it only routes traffic between devices running Tailscale, but doesn't touch your public internet traffic" so I don't think this would work.

Okay, so for anyone else who finds this: simply redo everything from scratch. Delete the app, then set it up again. TrueNAS scale seems to be quite unstable & gives me alpha software vibes. Core was a lot more reliable I feel.
