Include --advertise-exit-node

mraczka commented 3 years ago

Is there any way to use --advertise-exit-node flag? I've tried edit the startup script (v1.6) but it didn't work.

Yes, there is. There is no need to change the startup script, as it handles the Tailscale daemon (tailscaled), but the network configuration is handled by the Tailscale client (tailscale).

In order to advertise as an exit node, run:

getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info to get Tailscale installation location (for example /share/CE_CACHEDEV1_DATA/)
cd /share/CE_CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/Tailscale to go to Tailscale installation directory
./tailscale -socket var/run/tailscale/tailscaled.sock up --advertise-exit-node to reconfigure Tailscale to act as an exit node.

That is all. I can confirm that the option works and my QNAP routes the traffic well.

The command may have been changed.

./tailscale -socket /tmp/tailscale/tailscaled.sock up --advertise-exit-node --accept-routes

works for me.
