UPDATE (13:40 ET / 2024-07-05): Got the connection working via SMB. Literally the only thing I changed was moving to a credentials file rather than specifying credentials inline, so ... I'll be trying to figure out what mystery affliction prevented the connection before. Leaving this up because there are a bunch of great suggestions for troubleshooting this issue in the comments. Thanks everyone.

ORIGINAL POST:

Currently pulling out my hair. I have a Synology NAS with the tailscale service (everything up to date). I have a NixOS client laptop, everything up to date.

I'm simply (?) trying to connect to a share via tailscale, and I have not managed to find anything that works. I've been using NFS, but I'm fine with SMB ... or carrier pigeons at this point.

Does anyone know of a step by step, detailed, current tutorial to accomplish accessing a Synology share via tailscale on a linux device? I would not have thought this would be challenging!

I don't use synology but it kind of seems like the synology has an allowlist for subnets that can connect to it. Do you know what service is hosting the file share?

The allowlist for NFS allows the tailscale subnet and the local LAN subnet.

Does tailscale have a consistent subnet? Can you connect to the NFS share over the LAN net?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
