Does Virtualmin work with Linux Container?

Howdy,

Hmm, I’m unfortunately not familiar with that service, or what the setup might look like when you have an account with them.

I suppose the question comes down to this though – when you get a server from them, do you end up with a fairly standard setup containing a Virtualmin supported distro/version?

You can see the supported distros here:

Yes, it’s the supported on Centos or Ubuntu, but wondering if Virtualmin will work within the container

Here are some info

because I am not familiar with this kind of setup too and I am not using that service yet. Thanks!

Ah, LXC… I was more familiar with the abbreviation than the actual term “Linux Container” :slight_smile:

I haven’t heard many reports of folks using that.

However, with my understanding of LXC – it, in theory, should work just fine.

Do a google search on docker containers. it will give you a good launching startpoint. it is not a vm per se…it is much more akin to a BSD jail in many respects.
