netpi-desktop-hdmi with setting network=bridge

[Armin@netPI]

Hi there,

indeed the HDMI screen executed over hte CPU graphics controller works independent whether or not the container is operated in bridged or host mode.

But as you maybe know bridged mode does not map the used ports 22 and 5900 automatically to the Docker host (as it would be done in host mode) and hence can't be reached from "outside world". So right now you can't get access to the container via Putty terminal program.

So what you can try additionally when starting the HDMI container to add port mapping on port 22 and port 5900 too. Then at least you should get putty up and working. For VNC I don't know if it needs host mode but give it a try and see.

But if you have multiple container running at the same time of course mapped ports or host ports an be used only one time. So imagine you would deploy a Node-RED container (each using port 1880) two times on netPI ... this would never work ... only the first container started by Docker will win and get the port 1880.


Thx
