I figured that "unusual" ip address would come up. That is an ip address
of one of the machines in my "tailnet", which is a mesh virtual VPN running
thru "Tailscale" (tailscale.com). Since many of my machines are behind
CGNAT, this is the only way to keep them connected remotely.
In answer to your questions:
- Are your weewx system and your NAS on the same LAN ?
- They are, but they are communicating thru tailscale with their
mesh ip addresses. The NAS and the rPi each have their own ip address in
the 100.x.x.x segment
- What is the ip address of each ?
- As stated above, they each have their own address in that segment.
It is not reachable by anyone but other machines in my tailnet ... all
of
which are in the 100.x.x.x segment
- Which ip address have you been connecting to when you run ftp manually
?
- I can connect manually to the 100.122.175.72 address, which is the
NAS. Manual communication between rPi and the NAS is problem free.
>From the wee_report (above the logs) you will also see the connection made
to "Diskstation1005". This IS the NAS at the 100.122.175.72 address. That
report indicates a connection since it is able to read the destination
folder and that it exists. However it then "quit" 's after a PASV command
with a weird loopback address of 127.0.0.1, 218,66 and 78 on subsequient
attempts
The "visibility" of the NAS from the rPi is seamless. There is no DNS
resolution of any sort. The weewx.conf file lists the FTP server simply
with the 100.x.x.x address. I can ping the address from the rPi with solid
results
