tailscale VS algo

Tailscale

I'm using the GitHub version of tailscaled on one of my Macs as a background daemon launched at boot. To upgrade to the latest version, try the following:

Tailscale is a VPN service that makes the devices and applications you own accessible anywhere in the world, securely and effortlessly. It enables encrypted point-to-point connections using the open source WireGuard® protocol, which means only devices on your private network can communicate with each other.

Might be possible to do using a VPN as long as you can get broadcast/multicast packets forwarded.

Tailscale unfortunately doesn't support it...yet?

Tailscale - Make depaware output patch compatible

Tailscale is another way of doing it. I'm using it to access my Pi's Samba shares from my phone but it works from Windows as well.

Since we're already presuming you have a functional PFSense box with Wireguard installed and a VPS stood up, now you need to get Algo installed on the VPS. I'm not going to write this part out in detail, but basically you need to follow the procedures here to get Algo installed. However, *before* running ./algo you probably want to edit some of the config.cfg settings. I disabled IPSec (which saves a bunch of package installs and prevents a bunch of failures I saw on some of my VPSs), set my reduce_mtu setting to 80 just to prevent any MTU issues down the line, turned off DNS encryption, and renamed my users to the servers in question (for example: pfsense, vps_server, etc)

Check out the command line args for Auto1111, it talks about a gradio setup that can be accessed remotely. There's a time limit on gradio links though, I think. You could also set up a vpn that will allow you to access your PC remotely, then run A1111 with the --listen command and access it that way. I've done this with an Algo VPN on Azure and a Wireguard client for Windows for Android, but any VPN that lets you access your PC remotely would work.

One way you could try to get around is building your own VPN service, like this: https://github.com/trailofbits/algo/blob/master/README.md

Things I have tried so far: Clear network cache and reset adapters - IDK it fix aprevious problem I had https://github.com/trailofbits/algo/discussions/14504

(I can simply install Algo and get the Wireguard tunnel working, easy peasy... But from there, I can never get Plex port 32400 open... so I'm just trying from scratch now...)

Maybe try running algo vpn (following the road-warrior setup) in a VM instead? It has very light requirements. https://github.com/trailofbits/algo/blob/master/docs/deploy-to-ubuntu.md
