Install Ubuntu 24.04 or Any Linux Flavor on Windows 11 and Access It via SSH Using Tailscale Private IP

Many professionals and hobbyists need to work across both Windows and Linux environments. Finding an efficient way to run Linux applications on Windows is important.
Common methods to run Linux on Windows include dual boot, cloud VM/VPS, VirtualBox, LXC/LXD Containers, and Docker Containers, which have varying trade-offs.
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a compatibility layer that allows you to run a Linux distribution directly on Windows, providing a Linux-like environment within Windows. It supports various development, scripting, and testing tasks and can even run DevOps tools like Kubernetes, Docker, and Jenkins etc.
WSL advantages include full Linux kernel, direct integration with Windows filesystem, convenience, easier maintenance, interoperability, and developer-friendliness.
WSL limitations include performance and limited support for graphical applications and certain use cases requiring specific kernel modules or low-level hardware access.
To install WSL, ensure your system meets requirements like enabling virtualization in BIOS settings, having Windows 10 version 2004 or higher, and a minimum of 4 GB RAM.
Tailscale is a modern VPN service that simplifies connecting devices and applications over a secure network. It leverages the WireGuard protocol to create a peer-to-peer mesh network, known as TailNet, which allows devices within the same private network to communicate directly.
Tailscale can be used for various purposes, including SSH access, file access and sharing, private website access, and connecting to databases and Kubernetes clusters securely.
To set up Tailscale, create an account, install Tailscale on both WSL and Windows, generate an auth key, authenticate and connect, and SSH using Tailscale browser-based access. This setup allows you to leverage the power of Linux applications seamlessly within your Windows environment while ensuring secure, private connectivity from anywhere using any device.
The article provides useful commands and resources for readers to customize their Linux installation and Tailscale setup, and connect to a broader community for support and feedback.
