I want to start tailscale automatically when the machine starts. Auto start only works, when the users login. When I opened auto login, this time I saw an exclamation mark on the menu. I read couple of posts and found couple of things which all failed
- Downloaded non AppStore version. Same issue. Deleted it
- Followed Tailscaled on macOS · tailscale/tailscale Wiki · GitHub and installed it with go and tried running the daemon

I tried running sudo tailscale up and it says
failed to connect to local tailscaled (which appears to be running as tailscaled, pid 701). Got error: Failed to connect to local Tailscale daemon for /localapi/v0/status; not running? Error: dial tcp [::1]:49238: connect: connection refused
I am running Monterey 12.5.1 with M1
I will appreciate if you can tell me a method which would allow me to start tailscale automatically when the computer starts without any login and human interaction
