TLDR;
0) sign up for tailscale (free)
1) run CURL command on start9
2) copy the URL the end command gives you and visit
3) add that device to your tailscale dashboard
Visit your local home node, on the clearnet address tailscale gives you*
*you can redirect this public IP to a domain you own easily & free (mywebsite. com)
Their signup requirements suck fucking balls.
Sign up with Google. Fuck no.
Sign up with Microsoft. Fuck no.
Sign up with GitHub. I already said fuck no to signing up with Microsoft.
Sign up with Apple. Fuck no.
Sign up with OIDC?
Never figured out how to accomplish this one for free gracefully.
Use whatever OIDC provider you want 😏
Does this require being on a server with a public IP address, or could this theoretically be utilized on a dedicated home server with NixOS installed on a local network?
It **needs** a public IP, but where you point it is up to you. A VPS is easier than routing it to a selfhosted VM, but both options work.
There in lays my issue. I gotta cough up money monthly for a VPS, or run a public facing server from my home. Last time I did that from my house I was hacked in such a glorious manner that I swore I would never do it again.
This project though is pretty amazing. If I ever have a FOSS project that I start paying for a vps service again. It is totally going on it.
Thank you for sharing.
It can absolutely be on a private LAN. I access a local server on my network via Tailscale from outside the house. No public IP.
Holy shitballs. Gonna do some experimenting this weekend.
Know of any tutorials on how you accomplished this goal gracefully?
Yep I was totally wrong up above; **tailscale** absolutely works on local lan! It's the app that punches through routers no matter where your device goes. It's the whoke point, and it works great!
(I had posted about headscale today too in another note, which does need a public IP, so I got confused)
The tailscale documentation on their website is very good, they have plenty of use-case tutorials.
I don't think this is true. I use Tailscale on a local machine on a private LAN
