However, some Docker containers will allow SSH, and this can make management of the container much easier. Normally, Docker containers are very lightweight and only programmed to do one thing. Not all Docker containers are provisioned to run SSH. These commands usually suffice, but you may find yourself in a scenario where you’d prefer to use SSH to connect to the Docker container and manage it.

The first one is docker exec, and the second command, which allows us to attach to a running container, is docker attach. There are already two commands available that allow us to run commands on a Docker container. This allows you to use the container similarly to how you would a physical machine, except that Docker has done most of the setup legwork for us already. Once you have a Docker container up and running on a Linux system, one of the things you’ll likely need to do is run commands inside the container. They will be updated as I learn more or change the process.After installing Docker on Fedora, AlmaLinux, Manjaro, or some other distro, it’s time to install more containers. These notes are kind of rough and based on much of my exploration. $ docker run -t -i kalilinux/kali-rolling /bin/bash Tooling (that I still need to explore in more detail) The steps from this point forward should be re-run each time you start Kali Linux in this Docker Container (the run command below). # apt-get update & apt-get install metasploit-framework $ docker run -ti -rm -v /Users/bob.fornal/Projects/pentest/root:/root -v /Users/bob.fornal/Projects/pentest/postgres:/var/lib/postgresql kalilinux/kali-rolling /bin/bash Here are the abbreviated notes I put together. THIS ARTICLE IS INTENDED PRIMARILY FOR MYSELF.

With some quick searching I found that they already had Kali Linux dockerized. I was thinking of setting up a machine to explore when a co-worker mentioned building a Docker Container with Kali Linux inside it.

Kali Linux was mentioned and I started looking at what this meant.
