Windows client should grey out exit node selections if the device is advertised as an exit node #12771

Open garrett-ts opened 1 month ago

What is the issue?

Advertising a Windows device as an exit node still shows other exit nodes in the tailnet or via Mullvad as selectable. Attempting to select an option closes the menu, silently failing.

Untitled 1

The devices should be greyed out to indicate they can't be used while it is running as an exit node. This is the behavior seen in the MacOS client. Additionally, attempting the same steps via the CLI generate a proper warning.

I have two users with the same/similar issues... both Windows users (one on Win 10, the other on Win 11) who have only recently been onboarded with Tailscale. Both installed 1.68.2 and when they select an exit node, tailscale silently fails to select the exit node. I'm asking them to try 1.68.1 ... will post how that works out.

Rolling back to 1.68.1 made no difference. Have also got another win11 machine running successfully on 1.68.2, so suspect this might be a different issue :-/

Hi @kelivel - updates were sent through on ticket TSS-42242. FYI here, the unstable release (1.69.162) experienced the same issues. VPN access is up, but the selection of an exit node fails silently.

I'm in the middle of a bunch of work on the exit node menu anyway, so I'll look into this.
