Description
### What are you trying to do?
I [map a network drive](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/file-sharing-over-a-network-in-windows-b58704b2-f53a-4b82-7bc1-80f9994725bf) to a Windows drive letter with its Tailscale IP address. However, Windows complains anytime files are copied from this samba share to my local computer:
### How should we solve this?
It would be great if Tailscale could automatically tell Windows that these IPs are on an intranet.
### What is the impact of not solving this?
To work around this at present, I followed the instructions at https://superuser.com/questions/149056/disable-these-files-might-be-harmful-to-your-computer-warning. I have to repeat this on each new Windows machine where I map the Samba share.
Solving this feature request would reduce setup effort for each new machine.
### Anything else?
I know Taildrive is under beta; perhaps that may be another solution for my specific scenario?
