I've been using Netmaker for a few months now and it is incredible. Bastion VPN management for all our enviornments. The only thing we havne't gotten to work is full 0.0.0.0 forwarding. Docs say it's possible (tho not fully common use case), but we always get hangs when attempting. Usually we have to use sshuttle Other than that - incredible.

A pain point I still haven't resolved with WG is this. From my phone, I want to access my homelab through the WG server at home, but everything else through an external WG VPN somewhere else. My homelab ip range is 10.10.0.0/24 or whatever, but the external VPN is some other range. Wireguard doesn't seem to like this. The alternative is to route my phone to home for 100% of traffic, and my home router would egress th…

You should be able to have two peers. The only thing I see is, that you may need to explicitly define the routing.

The first peer is easy, with allowed IPs of 10.10.0.0/8. The 2nd peer will need more configs, as it should route everything else.

See this answer for an example where all ranges that are not RFC1918 are listed: https://serverfault.com/a/304791 I expect, that you need to enter those ranges as AllowedIPs for the peer that should route to the public internet.

WTF does “left” have to do with it?

Or maybe, just maybe, posting a comment that is egregiously outside the guidelines of the site means that people will see it and appropriately flag it.

Not everything is political and it’s showing that that is what you immediately jumped to.

I have to connect a Mac on latest OS to a Windows 7 PC on the same LAN to get access to an established VPN (L2TP/IPsec) on that machine.

I have never seen a confusing space as the VPN world. While I can connect e.g. to a SoftEther VPN Server on the windows box just fine, the installation breaks the established VPN connection to the external L2TP VPN.

Installed Wireguard and have absolutely no idea on how to configure that thing without investing hours...

Related, from earlier this year: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35584533 Wherein the author compares Yggdrasil, tinc, Tailscale, Zerotier, Netmaker, Nebula, and ends up prefering Yggdrasil. Actually, it was this comparison that made me look into Netmaker and prefer it and I've been running it without issue for experimentation. I hope the author revisits NM. I agree that the project is moving quickly, which resu…

After reading the readme on the Github, it's still not clear to me whether it proxies everything through its own servers or not
