Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control (tailscale.com)

This should be excellent for selfhosters that have all their services in one VM. I haven't tried this myself, but I think this means you can:

you can create memorable links instead of memorizing port numbers: jellyfin.foo-bar.ts.net
share one service from a machine instead of all of them in a more intuitive way

If you’re new to Tailscale Services, it lets you publish internal resources like databases, APIs, and web servers as named services in your tailnet, using stable MagicDNS names. Rather than connecting to individual machines, teams connect to logical services that automatically route traffic to healthy, available backends across your infrastructure. This decoupling makes migrations, scaling, and high availability far easier, without reconfiguring clients, rewriting access policies, or standing up load balancers. Our documentation has details on use cases, requirements, and implementation.

I did it about 8 months ago... it just works like black magic. It’s a "fire and forget" VPN, but SSO is a must in my opinion; otherwise, key exchange is too tedious.

You're talking about Headscale right?

[–] MatSeFi@lemmy.liebeleu.de 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes.. sry wasn't clear about that..

Can you share what components are you using for SSO, UI, etc.?

[–] MatSeFi@lemmy.liebeleu.de 5 points 4 months ago

Never got warm with all the UIs available. But things change very fast on that front. For me it looks like that they only differ by the time it takes to provide support for the newest headscale version. Just take the one supporting yours :) For SSO , the OIDC provider from Nextcloud is working as good as any other. Having some kind of static IP also helps but the headscale server runs on HTTPS port plus some optional ones (not sure if I remember correctly) dynamic dns should be ok as well.

Not OP but I use headscale and have it configured using Authentik for SSO. Works flawlessly once its up and running. I also use headplane for the UI. It has SSO integration as well which makes everything a breeze.

Edit: Forgot to mention, all running in docker with traefik as the reverse proxy.
