Headscale

An open source implementation of the Tailscale coordination server.

Status

  • Basic functionality (nodes can communicate with each other)
  • Node registration through the web flow
  • Network changes are relied to the nodes
  • Multiuser Namespace support
  • Share nodes between users namespaces
  • Node registration via pre-auth keys
  • ACLs
  • DNS

... and probably lots of stuff missing

Roadmap 🤷

Basic multiuser support (multinamespace, actually) is now implemented. No node sharing or ACLs between namespaces yet though...

Pre-auth keys should also be feasible.

Suggestions/PRs welcomed!

Running it

  1. Compile the headscale binary
go build cmd/headscale/headscale.go
  1. Get youself a PostgreSQL DB running (yes, I know)
docker run --name headscale -e POSTGRES_DB=headscale -e \
  POSTGRES_USER=foo -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=bar -p 5432:5432 -d postgres
  1. Sort some stuff up (headscale Wireguard keys & the config.json file)
wg genkey > private.key
wg pubkey < private.key > public.key  # not needed 
cp config.json.example config.json
  1. Create a namespace (equivalent to a user in tailscale.com)
./headscale namespace create myfirstnamespace
  1. Run the server
./headscale serve
  1. Add your first machine
tailscale up -login-server YOUR_HEADSCALE_URL

  1. Navigate to the URL you will get with tailscale up, where you'll find your machine key.

  2. In the server, register your machine to a namespace with the CLI

./headscale register YOURMACHINEKEY myfirstnamespace
