MatterIRD and Tailscale issues
Closed this issue · 2 comments
In building a college cyber club network with Tailscale, ran across an issue where MatterIRCd does not want to connect to Mattermost via a tailnet (100.0.64.x IP space). It returns a "version not supported" error.
The work-around is to set the Server address in matterircd.toml to Mattermost's "real" IP address (implying that MatterIRCd and Mattermost are hosted in the same 192.168.x.x network segment) and then I can connect (via the tailnet) to either: Mattermost via a browser or MatterIRCd via a IRC client. Just can't get MatterIRCd to talk to Mattermost via the tailnet.
This is probably low priority as the work-around is functional. Just thought y'all would be interested.
Can you include the Matterircd version used? Also, enable DEBUG and TRACE logging and include these logs?
I'm guessing it may be some TLS/SSL exchange failing over the Tailscale network.
Figured it out (please close this). Issue was PEBCAK. Had to set DefaultServer to "127.0.0.1:8065" in the Mattermost section of MatterIRCd's toml file and declare the default bind string in the command line.
Current state: I've added MatterIRCd to the Mattermost container, which is deployed in a K8S pod. Users connect via a Tailscale VPN, which also runs inside of the Mattermost container.
