Tailscale and ZimaCube as Exit Node

Hardware ZimaCube
1

My son will be overseas this fall for several months with a windows laptop. I would like to allow him to use the ZC as an exit node.
I have successfully installed Tailscale on ZimaOS and can access it through the generated IP address. However, I can’t seem to figure out how to properly activate it as an Exit Node.

Has anyone had luck with this or offer assistance?
Thank You in Advance

kind of late but after you have your node up and running you need to access the tailscale console in zimaos and type:

tailscale up --advertise-exit-node --accept-dns=false

then to avoid container bootloops you need to add a new environment variable in the zimaos tailscale settings menu:

TS_EXTRA_ARGS = --accept-dns=false --advertise-exit-node
