Am using Tailscale to RDP to my BVM

[sdare]

Hello BVM'ers!

In the Botspot spirt of 'If it can be done, why not?', I wanted to see if I could make my Windows 11 BVM even more accessible by adding it to my Tailscale network.

Sure, my BVM is on a nested network on my Pi, but Tailscale is all about making otherwise-insane network routing more...sane. So, I setup my tailscale client on the BVM, added it my tailnet and - nope.

But wait! My Pi (the host) ALSO needs know about my tailnet. After all, it's providing networking for the VM.

So, I setup a tailscale client on my Pi, added it to my tailnet and - tada! - both my Pi & the VM were now full network citizens. No crazy port forwarding or other changes needed! Now I can RDP, SSH, VNC to my guys from anywhere!
