Group passwords are really neat. Before rootless Docker became possible on Linux, you had 2 options: either run docker through sudo or assign yourself to the docker group, which is dangerous. I chose a 3rd option that they adopted in their documentation...

Honestly I don't think that anything really changed, both methods existed before pkgbase IIRC the handbook already described them before, it's just two different way to accomplish the same thing, just pick the one you prefer. To create pkgbase jails it's different, the handbook is a bit behind...

...all of my setup re-created in the FreeBSD space, the big change here I am looking forward to is looking at using jails and bhyve in place of Docker and libvirt. As we extensively use LXC/Proxmox in teaching labs, I am really curious after watching progress on the development of Sylve on...

I never used s6 and daemonless, but probably the answer is in s6-overlay, the s6 based service manager for Docker containers. They say

...from those that built these tools so that others can improve the documentation after they have gained a working knowledge. https://hub.docker.com/u/freebsd The previous image descriptions are described in https://freebsdfoundation.org/freebsd-container-images/ . The image sizes are a clue...

...I liked FreeBSD, because in case of problems it is simpler to debug. I prefer to check what is not working in the jails, than debugging Docker containers; or systemd configurations. Also Guix, despite it is Scheme, it is not so easy to debug in case of problems in the configuration code...

...client/old PC connecting with a browser or X11 forwarding. Choose whatever OS is right for the additional hardware. I probably do this too often as I have a lot of old machines dedicated to specific applications that are gradually being migrated to FreeBSD jails or Void/Alpine Docker containers.

Making stuff easier for appeal is what had Wayland years-early, systemd, and Docker-reliance everywhere :p I have the opinion learning should be encouraged with self-interest; I wanted FreeBSD, looked into it, and had it on my server and laptop within a few days after years of Linux. If a...

When I played with it, it worked fine but I haven't used it seriously. I recommend giving it a try.

You could run an Ubuntu on Bhyve , and run Linux-Docker-Containers in it. And even have, video-card & usb passthrough. But that looks more virtualization of Linux on FreeBSD. It's not my knowledge but "downloadable linux-docker-files" don't exist for FreeBSD OS.

"Functionally" a single executable running in a docker container is a "static executable, sandboxed". I think you can really limit a docker container interaction with host. maybe some hardware passthrus but mostly networking exposed. So is that functionally different from a jail/bhyve? Not...

In FreeBSD you create a jail. In one jail you can run firefox in other jail a webserver in an other a database. Which applications are you thinking of that need "docker" type features ? The freebsd way of working is you install a server and you edit yourself the config file.

Real containers in the form of jails docker is just a bunch of abstraction layers over namespaces and a lot of wishful thinking.

Many applications that are in docker containers have no real way of running on FreeBSD unless built from source. And many do not have docs for that. One example is Audiobookshelf. Apps like Immich are fairly difficult to get working, though some people have done it. It just takes time...

I don't know what "docker applications" implies exactly. It sounds like a linux distribution could be convenient as an alternative. As for FreeBSD, all can be done with it, except maybe docker apps, though there are jails for that purpose.

Is Podman a reliable alternative to Docker containers? I have docker apps such as FreshRSS, Immich, qBitorrent etc

So apparently the build system of TrueNAS will be in the near future not open source. I consider moving my home server entirely into FreeBSD. However I have many docker applications... What alternatives does FreeBSD provide? View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X28dH8crYGo

> Most of the time, they are intended to be installed with a “dockerfile”... and that's it ! It is a bi-state solution. On the long-term, either you go with the flow and use everything from dockers, or run everything with jails. Except, you can, as seems the direction is considered, run a...

...spoke to devices in the mesh and communicated to MQTT, but the GUI wouldn't work and that became a deal breaker. So... I doubled down on my docker adventure and built a new HA device on an rpi with my 4 containers (z2m, zwave, MQTT, Node-Red) running on it. The painful part was moving over...

Java. Write once, run everywhere. Sure :)
