# Linux Sing-Box and Tailscale Coexistence Issue


## Problem Description

When using Sing-box, the Tailscale client cannot work properly.
Other devices can ping the host through `tailscale ping <ip/hostname>`, but cannot establish connections (e.g., SSH shows `Connection refused`).

## Solution

Start Sing-box after the Tailscale service.
This can be achieved using systemd's `After` option.
