No, never. What is wrong with you?

Someone is going to have a lot of fun layouting that... Sometime I hate myself for starting such project.
Ces derniers temps les pressions sur la vie privée et le côté de plus en plus délirants des données collectées par les réseaux sociaux ont poussé la communauté du discord Scidogs à déménager. Pour le moment sur un mattermost/mostlymatter hébergé en France ( https://chat.scidogs.org ). Pour le moment (et peut être définitivement) l’inscription est sur invitation car ce n’est pas un réseau social. On y parle bricolage, technologie et technique, artisanat, art etc…

On parle beaucoup de souveraineté / autonomie stratégique (terme que je préfère), mais on imagine mal ce qu'elle implique. Heureusement, on a l'exemple du juge de la CPI Nicolas Guillou, qui livre un témoignage édifiant.

I see more and more people talking about meshtastic and their use as HAM radio operator…. Please don’t ! First meshtastic is most of the time in ISM band and not HAM band and also you use cryptography on the link which is absolutely forbidden for HAM radio. When some gvt will find that this use of meshtastic is a problem they will take opportunity to act against ham radio right too….

Install Tailscale tsidp in Proxmox

In this guide we’ll walk through setting up Tailscale’s experimental Identity Provider (tsidp) inside a lightweight Debian Proxmox container. We’ll create the container, install Go, build the binary, configure systemd with environment variables, and run tsidp as a dedicated user.

This is a very raw howto, copy paste ready, based on my attempts, target audience is homelaber. Comments welcome !

1. Create a Proxmox container

  • Debian template (Tested with debian-12-standard_12.7-1_amd64.tar.zst)
  • Resources: 512 MB RAM, 1 vCPU, 8 GB disk
  • Set the CT as unprivileged for security

2. Update system and install dependencies

Enter VM console and let’s start initial setup !

# Start from a clean OSapt update && apt upgrade -y# Install git and wgetapt install -y git wget

Download and install Go 1.24.7 manually:

wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.24.7.linux-amd64.tar.gztar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.24.7.linux-amd64.tar.gzecho 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' >> ~/.bashrcsource ~/.bashrc

Verify:

root@tsidp-tuto:~# go versiongo version go1.24.7 linux/amd64

3. Clone tsidp

git clone https://github.com/tailscale/tsidp.git /opt/tsidp-src

4. Build and install binary

cd /opt/tsidp-srcmkdir /opt/tsidpgo build -o /opt/tsidp/tsidp .

5. Configure systemd service

Create a dedicated user:

# Create tsidp user with home and no hselluseradd -r -m -d /home/tsidp -s /bin/false tsidp

Create your TS_AUTHKEY :

It’s important to create a reusable key so that the service can restart itself.
The README says “Ensure you select an existing tag or create a new one.”
So I created a “tsidp” tag for this purpose.

Create environment file with your newly created key:

cat >/opt/tsidp/.env <<EOFTSNET_FORCE_LOGIN=1TS_AUTHKEY=tskey-auth-xxxxxxxxxxxxTAILSCALE_USE_WIP_CODE=1EOF

Systemd unit /etc/systemd/system/tsidp.service:

[Unit]Description=Tailscale IDPAfter=network.target[Service]WorkingDirectory=/opt/tsidpEnvironmentFile=/opt/tsidp/.envExecStart=/opt/tsidp/tsidpRestart=on-failureRestartSec=5User=tsidpGroup=tsidp[Install]WantedBy=multi-user.target

Enable service:

systemctl daemon-reloadsystemctl enable --now tsidp

6. Recap & Next steps

Once started, you can check whether tsidp is running correctly:

systemctl status tsidp

Or follow logs in real-time:

journalctl -u tsidp -f

Look for messages like tsidp server started or AuthLoop: state is Running which confirm that the embedded Tailscale client has initialized successfully.

You now have tsidp running inside a minimal Debian Proxmox container, with proper environment separation and persistent state. This setup is lightweight, reproducible, and suitable for lab testing.

Stay tuned for next steps !

If you are a US citizen holding a #HamRadio license, please add your name to this campaign to end overbearing HOA restrictions on #AmateurRadio antennas with bills in both the house and senate, both of which have bipartisan sponsorship.

Fill in your callsign, and your contact information will be automatically filled in from your FCC records. Change anything that needs to be changed, and click send the letter. Here is the letter that you will be sending to your senators and representative.

While the ARRL is coordinating this effort, this is not restricted to ARRL members. The only restriction is that it is limited to licensed US ham radio operators. This will be sent with your name and information to your particular senators and representative. Please join this effort even if you have left the ARRL or never joined it. This is for ham radio, not for the ARRL!

Even if you are not currently part of an HOA, even if you concretely plan never to be part of one, it's worth helping your fellow hams out, even if it's just for the better QSOs with more hams in more places.
