Hi, I’m relatively new to Umbrel but I love it and I’ve been using it for all sorts of things. And things that I can’t do, I use Portainer and spin up new apps.

I have Tailscale installed via Umbrel. My understanding is it runs inside a Docker container.

I have a need for accessing the Tailscale network inside one of my containers inside Portainer and I discovered it’s not able to access other devices on the Tailscale network.

What is the best approach to this? Thank you!
