tailscale is about the lowest effort way of doing this.
Thanks for the suggestion, hadn't heard of it.
So I guess it's a VPN software - would that solve all three needs in one? I can see how it works for remote files but not as well how it would help with the other two.
yeah it's a mesh vpn setup, it's pretty slick, as long as everything you want is net accessible, it can pretty much be accessed using tailscale. Stable diffusion web interface for example, could be made accessible over the network, though you might need to do a reverse proxy or ssh tunnel or something like that, but it should be possible.
I've been using as a vpn proxy for mobile devices on my server network (or externally), i just have my subnet shared through the primary node, and then other devices can access them directly through tailscale.
Amazing sounds like a great place to start! And sounds like I have plenty to learn to get it working.
yeah it should be a pretty good starting point, the rest should generally be a mix of "fairly trivial" and "relatively fucked up"
but that's part of the fun.
ZeroTier is another alternative. Don't really know the differences but if you're googling about tailscale it might be worth a check.
Nice thanks, always good to have options
