Tailscale will let you use any SAML or OIDC provider you like in the Enterprise plan (presumably because of the cost of supporting the long tail of nonsense IdPs will produce).
(Disclosure: I'm a (small) investor via Latacora's sibling fund, Lagomorphic.)
- typical182 4y agoSemi-related question: did Latacora or @tqbf ever open source their Go-based SAML IDP: https://twitter.com/tqbf/status/938501701526487040 https://twitter.com/tqbf/status/938501701526487040 (That tweet I think was a teaser saying it was coming. I subsequently looked for it a few times and never found it, but maybe plans changed, or maybe I just failed to find it).
- lvh 4y agoNope. It was pretty much just Thomas and Erin working on it, and I don't think it's operational. Sorry :(
- eadmund 4y agoThat only addresses half the problem, though, right? Can't Tailscale still add any nodes they want to one's network? Also, it doesn't address the individual case, but that's fair enough: Tailscale isn't a charity.
- colordrops 4y agoDon't you have to also trust Tailscales closed source coordinator node?
- wmf 4y agoWhich also applies to Tailscale's SD-WAN and cloud VPN competitors.
- colordrops 4y agoBut doesn't apply to my wireguard setup on my OPNSense installation at home.
- wmf 4y agoThis is the HN disconnect: people commenting here have completely different concerns than Tailscale's actual customers.
- colordrops 4y agoThat is true. Sometimes we are talking about the business aspects of product-market fit, and sometimes we are talking about our own personal use of the product or domain. In this case it's both.
