Originally created by @ykorzikowski on GitHub (Mar 28, 2023).

Describe the problem
I created a ansible role for deploying netbird automatically.

For this, I retrieve the setup key via bitwarden vault, install netbird and run the up command afterwards. (Will add this to github later)

There are two issues I am dealing with right now:

  1. sometimes, the up command fails (actually most of the times). Not sure if its timing issue or something. I am trying to retry it multiple times or restarting the netbird service

  2. When re-installing my server via ansible role, connecting a second time to netbird will result into different dns name. E.g. server.example.com will be server-1.example.com after running it a second time.
    Question: Is there an option for delelting it automatically? Now, I need to manually delete the old netbird entry in the webinterface.

Are there plans improving automatic netbird deployment for servers?
