Describe the Bug

Hello,
When I try to create private resource on my selfhosted Pangolin instance it asks for site but the site list is empty therefor I can't create it as it's required field. I can create public resources with no problem.

I'm trying to create private resource to expose client with Olm installed (Machine client) to connected User Device Client.

Environment

  • OS Type & Version: Fedora server 43 6.18.7-200.fc43
  • Pangolin Version: 1.15.1
  • Gerbil Version: Latest
  • Traefik Version: 3.6
  • Newt Version: not applicable - using only local site
  • Olm Version: 1.4.1

To Reproduce

Open private resources -> it asks for name and site -> site list is empty

Expected Behavior

Don't ask for site or present non-empty site list

Hi @Ziomal12
local sites don't support private resources. See docs.
You have to use newt for this.

Hi @Lokowitz,
You're right, I'm not sure how I've missed that... Sorry for that.
Is there any other way (without using newt) to 'expose' this machine? Kind of an overlay network style? I feel like there's a technology to allow that without having to install Tailscale/NetBird for just that.

As for this issue I'm marking this as resolved

Not right now, no. This is not really meant to be a overlay network so
it is very one directional! :}
