I need to connect to my own server that runs Linux Mint.

After installing Tailscale on both PCs (client and server) I can successfully ping the server from client, but I'm unable to traceroute it.

Vice-versa, from server to client everything is working smooth. I tried checking firewalls on the server, but I'm unable to find anything that may block the connection.

I stopped the ufw service(that was anyway already inactive), allowed anything in and out using these iptables commands:

iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -F

I have no idea what may prevent the connection.

  • I have no firewall as far as I'm aware. I disabled all firewalls also on my router settings. I don't know what else to check. Something really odd happening.

  • Does the server receive any of the traceroute probes? Do you see them in the packet capture? Have you tried both UDP and ICMP traceroute modes? Commented Aug 4, 2023 at 4:19
  • No nothing arrives to the server, It fails with a !H error. Yes i tried every mode.
