# Alpine ssh server

## Instructions

### Key based usage (prefered)

Copy the id_rsa.pub from your workstation to your dockerhost. On the dockerhost create a volume to keep your authorized_keys. `bash tar cv --files-from /dev/null | docker import - scratch docker create -v /root/.ssh --name ssh-container scratch /bin/true docker cp id_rsa.pub ssh-container:/root/.ssh/authorized_keys `

For ssh key forwarding use ssh-agent on your workstation. `bash ssh-agent ssh-add id_rsa `

Then the start sshd service on the dockerhost (check the tags for alpine versions) `bash docker run -p 4848:22 --name alpine-sshd --hostname alpine-sshd --volumes-from ssh-container -d danielguerra/alpine-sshd `

### Password based

`bash docker run -p 4848:22 --name alpine-sshd --hostname alpine-sshd -d danielguerra/alpine-sshd docker exec -ti docker-sshd passwd `

### From your workstation

ssh to your new docker environment, with an agent -i option is not needed `bash ssh -p 4848 -i id_rsa root@<dockerhost> `
