Synology NAS package for Tailscale based on precompiled static binaries.

You use everything here at your own risk. Make sure you have other network paths to your NAS before installing this, in case something goes wrong.

1. Download precompiled releases from the page for SPKs for your platform.
2. In the Synology DSM web admin UI, open the Package Center.
3. Press the Manual install button and provide the SPK file.
4. Follow the wizard until done.
5. At this point tailscaled should be up and running.
6. SSH into the machine, and run sudo tailscale up so you can authenticate.

If upgrading to version v1.10.0, you may end up with duplicate installations of Tailscale. This is a known side effect of some metadata changes that were made in v1.10.0 in preparation of the installation package to be listed in the Synology Package Center. It is recommended to uninstall the old Tailscale package first before upgrading to v1.10.0. Please note that your devices Tailscale IP may change when v1.10.0 is installed.

The current package is confirmed to be working in different Synology models and architectures.

The package is created based on Tailscale static binaries, and if your NAS has any of the supported architectures (x86, x86_64, arm, arm64) it should just work.

If in doubt, check the synology model list for the matching architecture.

This project hosts the machinery to build Tailscale Synology packages.

You can build the packages using make spkall from the github.com/tailscale/tailscale repo

git clone https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale.git
cd tailscale
make spkall

If everything worked you should have a directory called spks that contains your SPK files.
