how to fix browsing the internal network

MacOS issues with .local

In MacOS, you can do dig whatever.local and get some results if you have the entry in a local DNS (like pi-hole) but curl, or browsing will fail. This is because Apple enforces that .local domain is only discovered by the mDNS Bonjour service (more info)

To solve this, I decided to run the avahi-daemon in my local Raspberry-pi to publish additional services.

I decided to use the avahi-aliases project to simplify publishing more than one service on the same IP as the default avahi-daemon doesn't allow this at the moment

Installing avahi-aliases

Install Tasmota Admin.md

TasmotaAdmin: https://github.com/TasmoAdmin/TasmoAdmin

TasmotAdmin docker image needs a current version of libseccomp2 - if not you get an error:

s6-svscan: warning: unable to iopause: Operation not permitted
s6-svscan: warning: executing into .s6-svscan/crash
s6-svscan crashed. Killing everything and exiting.
s6-supervise s6-linux-init-shutdownd: fatal: unable to iopause: Operation not permitted
s6-linux-init-hpr: fatal: unable to reboot(): Operation not permitted

To do this in Raspbian Buster you can follow this

but basically:

sudo echo "deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ bullseye main" > vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bullseye-testing-docker.list
sudo echo "Package: *\nPin: release n=bullseye\nPin-Priority: 50" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/bullseye-docker.pref
sudo systemctl stop docker
sudo apt update
sudo apt install docker.io/bullseye

then you can follow the instructions on TasmoAdmin page
