FAQ

What is my tailnet's name?

You can find your tailnet's name in DNS panel of Tailscale's admin console. You can read more about it in here.

Telltail's website doesn't open (or Telltail Center doesn't seem to work)

Check if you can see a machine named 'telltail' up and available. If you see 'telltail-1' as available instead, it means you have installed Telltail Center on some other device before. Delete both 'telltail' and 'telltail-1' and reinstall Center.

Otherwise, check if the auth key you entered has expired. In the machine that has Telltail Center installed, you can do telltail edit center-auth-key to see what auth key Center uses and then confirm if it is also present under Auth keys in Tailscale's admin console. What you have to look for is the key's ID. For example if your key looks like 'tskey-auth-uniqkeyid-somequiteverylongkey', the key's ID would be 'uniqkeyid'.

Why are executables bigger in size for Windows?

Ways with which we compress executables result in files that are falsely detected as malwares. This is a common problem for programs written in Golang and Python. That's why we do not compress them to keep the false detection to a minimum. We ensure that it remains this way by verifying it using VirusTotal.
