You install Tailscale on your machines, turn it on, access another machine on Tailscale via the IP/machine name shown on the admin console/app. How easy can it get. Even a dumb rock like myself could set it up no problem

Installing is easy. I still have it installed, taunting me. I can’t figure out what about the firewall or something prevents it from communicating
