openssh-server

Docker app from djismgaming's Repository

Overview

Added as the linuxserver one is not appearing in the Custom Applications at this moment. Openssh-server is a sandboxed environment that allows ssh access without giving keys to the entire server. Giving ssh access via private key often means giving full access to the server. This container creates a limited and sandboxed environment that others can ssh into. The users only have access to the folders mapped and the processes running inside this container. Application setup: see https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-openssh-server#application-setup
