This is the main problem. If this is a container, you may need to export /dev/net/tun from the host: Tailscale in LXC containers · Tailscale Docs

If this is a standalone system or VM, try: modprobe tun

Sry , but i do directly run it in the System (Ubuntu 18.04 - Arm)
And … how can i solve it ? need to open some port ? or config the network interface?
Thanks !!!

Is this a hardware ARM system, a VM, or a container?

If it is a hardware ARM system, try running as root: modprobe tun

5

Yes , hardware ARM , and i found it have no tun with this linux core . Thanks .
So it will work with i build an new core with tun , right ? Thanks !

This is the error to solve. You need a /dev/net/tun device.
