Came here from the excellent Self Hosted podcast, and now a tailscale fan.

Perfectly timed. Thank you so much for this. Have a great holiday break.

This is all too good to be true. I feel like Tailscale is setting us up to be SO reliant on their services that one day they will start requiring a subscription service to then access the indispensable access features that we've setup.

CGNAT for meu used to be a pain , but Tailscale made everything so easy. Thank you, guys.

I'm not exaggerating when i tell you i love you, and Tailscale. This shit is so fucking cool.

Alex! Love your videos. I learned so much from you. Thank you.

I swear that this is MAGIC! Thank you Alex.

Excellent, brillant, marvelous... I am speechless, it is so good. Thanks a lot!

Really interesting video. I never knew it had all these capabilities

I tried every other VPN and couldn't get it to work because I have a wireless ISP in the country with CGNAT. Tell scale was pretty much plug and play thank you. 😊

Thanks Too much for your efforts this is the best VPN I used On All Of my devices

Does enabling tailscale SSH on the server make any changes on the same tailscale SSH server using NON-tailscale connections (local vlan)? I'm amazed the TS ACLs are applied so seamlessly. I've been using SSH for 3 decades and this set-up looks like magic to me 🧙. I'm assuming default port [22] has to be allowed in the local machine firewall (if enabled) for the tun interface. I'm used to doing all this in the sshd_config, ufw, etc

if the node your setting -ssh flag on is already an exit node, does this work ? I'm finding the ssh flag is not set but then, as an exit node and with its routes advertised, I get ssh direct to this anyways, which is also pretty cool

I would love an extremely indepth tutorial from beginning the download to finish product.

i had tough times wish had known this early

Hi there. Thanks for the video. I've been pulling my hair out for the last 3 days trying to connect to my Proxmox Tailscale container through Github Runner and then SSH to other Proxmox VMs and hosts through my Github workflow. I can successfully connect to the Tailscale container, but I cannot connect to other VMs and hosts via SSH. The latest error I'm encountering is "Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal." I've tried modifying the command with -t, -tt, and -T, but no luck. Also, it would be helpful to know that SSH is disabled by default in Tailscale connections.

Hi Alex, Pls let me know how I can access my network drive that I attached to glinet router outside of my network Thank you!!

Thanks Alex. Love the podcast too! Keep the tuts comin'!

My access controls doesn't have a "checkPeriod" line, is it safe to add it manually?

Oh my God. Tailscale is like a magic thing. 我喜欢Tailscale❤

I have a machine which is connected to tailscale, it has few applications running in it, when i ssh into the device the tailscale works for the person using the device, as soon as I close my terminal the tailscale goes down to him, what could be the root cause and solution for it

Would love a video about getting ssl working with caddy as the documentation is somewhat lacking. I am thinking in regards to docker services with a reverse proxy (instead of file server)

Is this possible on Synology NAS?

I checked the pricing page on Tailscale and it lists Tailscale SSH in Premium. This means that it isn't available on the free tier, right?

How do I do this within the Home Assistant add-on?

Great video. Can you do one with magic dns?

when trying to run tailscale set --ssh on a mac I get the error :"The Tailscale SSH server does not run in sandboxed Tailscale GUI builds"

I did it in 1 minute. TS is absolutely amazing! But, for some reason, the quick install from .sh did not work. I had to do install TS "manually". And I said "manually" because it is not manually at all. The installation plus config is automatically.

I assume running tailscale as a docker container breaks this functionality ?

I tried to activate Tailscale SSH on my Synology NAS. I got the message "The Tailscale SSH server does not run on Synology". Isn't Synology NAS a Linux system ???

Check is now default on Tailscale (2024)

The Tailscale SSH server does not run on Synology. The Tailscale SSH server is not supported on windows Big sad face.

Understand command line... but when it come to the ins and outs of this... This is quite disorienting... Where to even begin to understand all this.... so I have questions... What level of knowledge and which tool-sets would one need to understand this? Specifically...Which college courses or University level education or KZfaq videos are required to understand what is going on here?... Tailscale is wonderful for a startup like mine... and I am quite technically proficient... but honestly guys... there is too much esoteric IT lingo involved in this video for an outsider... ... and how many Tailscale users are do-it-yourself amateurs? ...Setting up a secure network on a shoestring budget by myself... this video raises way more out-of-scope questions than I can handle...

this is awesome
