Docker docs:

Docker routes container traffic in the nat table, which means that packets are diverted before it reaches the INPUT and OUTPUT chains that ufw uses. Packets are routed before the firewall rules can be applied, effectively ignoring your firewall configuration.

This was a large part of the reason I switched to rootless podman for everything

[-] False@lemmy.world 21 points 3 months ago

Explicitly binding certain ports to the container has a similar effect, no?

[-] doughless@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

I still need to allow the ports in my firewall when using podman, even when I bind to 0.0.0.0.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Also when using a rootfull Podman socket?

[-] doughless@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I haven't tried rootful since I haven't had issues with rootless. I'll have to check on that and get back to you.

[-] doughless@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

When running as root, I did not need to add the firewall rule.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Thanks for checking

[-] Static_Rocket@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

It's better than nothing but I hate the additional logs that came from it constantly fighting firewalld.

My problem with podman is the incompatibility with portainer :(

Any recommendations?

[-] giacomo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 3 months ago

cockpit has a podman/container extension you might like.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It's okay for simple things, but too simple for anything beyond that, IMO. One important issue is that unlike with Portainer you can't edit the container in any way without deleting it and configuring it again, which is quite annoying if you just want to change 1 environment variable (GH Issue). Perhaps they will add a quadlet config tool to cockpit sometime in the future.

[-] giacomo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 months ago

i mean, you can just redeploy the container with the updated variable. thats kinda how they work.

[-] slate@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 months ago

CLI and Quadlet? /s but seriously, that's what I use lol

[-] chunkystyles@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago

Quadlets are so nice.

[-] Guilvareux@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago

I assume portainer communicates via the docker socket? If so, couldn’t you just point portainer to the podman socket?

This is the way.
