Thanks for sharing. I recall hearing about this before. After reading this thread I've been trying to vend some of my selfhosted apps over yggdrasil. The documentation is difficult to find. A good tutorial would be really useful. Here are my two biggest stumbling blocks headaches:
- ipv6 headache: I had to update my server host binding from
0.0.0.0to::(from ipv4 to ipv6). Apparently ipv4 still works but now ipv6 also works. This was the biggest blocker for me gaining access to my apps over yggdrasil using ipv6. - yggdrasil.conf headache: ipv6 syntax issues (apparently I need to learn me some ipv6 stuff) You need to put ipv6 ip addresses in brackets. This is an excerpt from my Listen attribute in my yggdrasil.conf file.
# Listen addresses for incoming connections. You will need to add
# listeners in order to accept incoming peerings from non-local nodes.
# Multicast peer discovery will work regardless of any listeners set
# here. Each listener should be specified in URI format as above, e.g.
# tls://0.0.0.0:0 or tls://[::]:0 to listen on all interfaces.
Listen: [
tls://[::]:8000
tls://[::]:8080
]
I also downloaded an yggdrasil vpn app for Android and was able to access both apps with Android after adding a peer connection in the settings. Later, I added my Android public key to the AllowedPublicKeys to lock down my apps to be only accessible to my client.
Thanks @wgs for the tip! 🏆
