Simple proof of concept to run a Linux desktop in a container.
I want to run a graphical Linux app, such as scap-workbench,
and access it from devices that cannot run an X Server,
such as a stock Chromebook or Windows laptop.
I may extend https://github.com/jumanjiman/wormhole to provide a full desktop along the lines of xrdp.
On a Linux host with Docker:
# Alpine desktop.
# This is really meant to be a base image for others.
docker run -d -p 3389:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp:alpine
# Fedora desktop.
# This is really meant to be a base image for others.
docker run -d -p 3389:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp
# Or desktop with SCAP workbench.
docker run -d -p 3389:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp:openscap
Connect to the container as user foo with password bar
via an RDP client.
On a Windows host with Docker:
# Alpine desktop.
# This is really meant to be a base image for others.
docker run -d -p 4000:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp:alpine
# Fedora desktop.
# This is really meant to be a base image for others.
docker run -d -p 4000:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp
# Or desktop with SCAP workbench.
docker run -d -p 4000:3389 jumanjiman/xrdp:openscap
Connect to the container as user foo with password bar
via an RDP client to localhost:4000
(Note that you may be able to just follow the Linux instructions, but at least some versions of Windows have Remote Assitance / Remote Desktop already listening on port 3389)
On a Linux host with Docker and Docker Compose:
ci/build
