# To set this up, first get tailscale working in an isolated linux shell:
# 1. sudo systemctl stop tailscaled.service
# 2. tailscaled -port 9993 -state tailscale-luks-setup.state -tun userspace-networking -socket ./tailscaled.sock
# 3. tailscale -socket ./tailscaled.sock up -hostname HOSTNAME-luks
# 4. tailscale -socket ./tailscaled.sock down
# 5. ctrl-c out of tailscaled
# 6 sudo systemctl start tailscaled.service
#
# Then add the .state file to your machine secrets and pass its path as tailscaleStatePath.
