How would I change the commands in the OP if I wanted the IP range for my dockers to be from 192.168.1.224-192.168.1.254? Is that possible? Alternatively, how would the original commands change, and then the docker creation, if I wanted to use a static IP when creating a docker? On May 1 a bunch of this stuff was said to be coming soon - presumably it has landed? That isn't mentioned in this thread. If so, in what version?

I have about a dozen different docker containers running and it is a pain figuring out what ports to use when you add a new docker. There is a button where you can see the ports used but that doesn't show every port used as often the docker containers use other ports in the background for stuff other than a web UI. Wouldn't it be easier if every Docker got its own virtual IP address on your subnet, just like a full VM? That way you could use port 80,443 or 8080 for every container, rather than having to futz around using port 7080, 6080, etc? Instead you would just assign a static IP for each docker or use DHCP reservation. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks.

Isn't there any way of making some of the core Linux application files, like at least nano, available to all of the dockers? Couldn't this even be done with some sort of mapping of a folder or symlink?

So I did this (except I used /rutorrent rather than /ru in the location line) and it works for me now - however when I am in the unRAID dashboard and I click on the web UI it doesn't work since it tries to open http://tower:7777 rather than http://tower:7777/rutorrent which is now the correct URL given the config change that we did in the /appdata/rutorrent/nginx/nginx.conf file . What do you do you fix the URL that it uses by default in the dashboard?

From time to time I have had to go into some of my Dockers, like my SageTV docker, and make some changes. Some times it is just to temporarily do a chmod on a file, sometimes it requires some editing of a text file. I know that these get wiped when the docker is restarted but it is still nice to use geany rather than vi as a text editor. Nano seems to be available in root ssh sessions but when you go into one of the dockers it seems like that isn't even available.

I would like to be able to do configuration to my unRAID machine via a graphical account, such as opening up an XRDP session to my unRAID server. This would allow me to use graphical text editors like gedit or geany. Is this possible? And if so, how would you then be able to use these editors within a docker environment after you do a "docker exec -it DockerName /bin/bash"? I tried installing the Ubuntu-xrdp docker a few months ago but I haven't been able to get it to work. I posted questions in the forum but I never got a response so I don't know exactly what that docker does or if it is supported anymore.

Thanks - if I upgraded and didn't have the DVB edition then my SageTV system wouldn't work properly so that is what I meant by hosed.

Just to clarify - to upgrade I just upgrade the DVB edition, I don't need to upgrade the "core" unRAID first, correct? In fact, if I am using the DVB version I assume that I never want to upgrade the core version as it will hose my system.

I had calamari, Squid

That's exactly what I would want to do. Build a new system with a trial license and get it working properly - then transfer over your data and license.

Great, that seems reasonable.

What's the best way to do a transition if you want to turn up a new system and start configuring it and then transfer your license over and shut down the old system? Can you transfer the license to a different key?

Anyone? My port settings are: 3389,6080,5911. My paths are /mnt/user/appdata/ubuntu/.config and /mnt/user/appdata/ubuntu/unraid

Thanks Squid - but that seems to discuss Webdav - is that the same thing as being able to run Python scripts. On plain vanilla Linux, like Ubuntu or Raspbian, I would be able to execute python scripts in /usr/lib/cgi-bin by hitting a url like http://localhost/cgi-bin/hello.py and you turn this on with one or two simple edits to an Apache config file.

It must be something to do with a2enmod to allow for python script execution.

I want to get back to solving this issue, which I never got around to before but this link appears to be broken. Would it be possible to fix it? Thanks.

If I make changes in the /appdata/rutorrent/rtorrent/rtorrent.rc file will it persist after I upgrade the docker? It looks like it will but I am not 100% sure - I changed the download rate to 0. After an upgrade it shows in the settings through the web UI as 102400 KiB/s - is that what the web UI shows when you set to 0 which is supposed to be unlimited?

I just noticed this message on my console: "chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink '/usr/sbin/speedtest-linux'. Does anyone else see this?

Is there any way to access the /var/www/localhost/rutorrent/plugins/autotools/ path without being in the docker? It would be nice to be able to use editors other than vi (which I find EXTREMELY unfriendly to use) or even use a Samba share so that you can edit it from Notepad++.

About three days per week and always around 5:00-7:00 I get my UPS reporting a power outage but it comes back a second later. Here is an example from the logs. I am 99% sure that the power didn't drop in my house as I would notice it as my security alarm general goes off when power dies. This isn't unRAID doing some sort of a test, is it? Or maybe my APC UPS sending a test signal? Does anyone else see this? edit - Something weird happened to the quote posted below.

Can you use Controlr remotely? Or does ControlR need full access to port 80 on your server to work?

Me too!

Is there any way to use a local file rather than a URL? And when you do this will it restart the docker?

How do you change the docker icons?
