Anyone have a way to install the client on a non-rooted box? I couldn't find anything in the docs about the assumption that it requires root or not, other than it being implied by their install steps using system package managers.

You can grab static binary tarballs on https://pkgs.tailscale.com and then run tailscale in userspace mode: https://tailscale.com/kb/1112/userspace-networking/.

Nice, thank you! I got it to work.
