From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I find everyone using different services, so unsure how to best manage (and balance) concurrent access in Ubuntu/Debian to:

  • Local network services
  • Tailscale services from userA
  • Tailscale services from userB
  • Wireguard (OpenVPN also option) from userC
  • Twingate from userD

Each user is wanting to share different services via VPN, and pressuring any to change their production setups to a different style of VPN is not going to happen.

  • Management via software
  • Possibly up a routing device along the lines of OpenWrt or OpnSense.
    • Could even distribute such devices between these friends.

Thanks for all thoughts!

Are you running your services directly on the host or via docker? All the VPN services listed provide docker images which I think should allow you to run multiple instances without them interfering with each other, although I've only played around with Tailscale myself. The setup would be slightly different depending on if your services are containers or not
