Running Cockpit in a container
by Imobach Gonzalez Sosa 20 May '22

20 May '22

Hi all, Recently, we have been doing some experiments to run YaST as a privileged container and being able to change the host[1]. Of course, it does not work out of the box, but we found out that it might be possible to make it work. So you would not need Ruby (or its libraries) to be installed on the host. Along with that experiment, I was thinking whether it was possible to do something similar with Cockpit. I saw that you had a discussion in 2014[2], but I do not know which was the final outcome. On the other hand, I recently read the "minimal cockpit packages for target node" thread and I it sounds pretty cool. Do you have any concrete plans for that? Can we help in any way? Just to summarize, we would like to monitor/configure the host system (with no Cockpit at all) from a container and I was unsure whether you already had solved that problem :-) Any comment is welcome. Thanks!

As "target node" I meant a node which plan to add to Cockpit web interface on main server to make possible SSH login to this node and monitoring. I.e. it's possible to install cockpit-ws or Cockpit flatpak Client on "bastion host" but for me interesting what is a minimal cockpit software need to install on remote node to make possible remote SSH to it from main server and monitoring. As I understood it's not enough just to add a public ssh key to file authorized_hosts on remote node. -- Best wishes, Vyacheslav

minimal cockpit packages for target node
by Sohin Vyacheslav 03 May '22

03 May '22

Hello, I installed full cockpit deb-packages suit on Ubuntu-20.04 server and as I understand for target node it's possible to install only these 2 packages: cockpit-bridge and cockpit-system to make possible monitoring of target node, isn't it? Thanks in advance! -- BW, Sohin Vyacheslav
