WARNING

The base image has been changed from debian:jessie to ubuntu:latest. I have made this changes due to the old packages version in the debian jessie. If you still want to use the debian one, use the tag debian-latest or debian-1.2.1.

Summary

Build the image

To create this image, execute the following command in the docker-sshd folder.

docker image build -t cburki/sshd .

Configure the image

The following environment variables could be used to configure the users.

• SSH_PASSWORD : The password for root and given user. No password is set when not specified.
• SSH_AUTHORIZED_KEY : Your public key that will be added to the authorized key file of the root and given user.
• SSH_USER : An optional user that will be created.

You will not be able to log into this container if you do not provide at least SSH_PASSWORD or SSH_AUTHORIZED_KEY. Be careful to set a strong password for the users because they have full access to the volumes you specify to mount when running the container. When he user SSH_USER is created, the SSH_PASSWORD and SSH_AUTHORIZED_KEY are also set for this user.
