Greetings, I’m trying to do some network connectivity tests within the docker container itself, and am trying to elevate the console within the container to root so that I can install apt packages temporarily. I’ve tried su - , and then entering the password i’ve defined for GRAYLOG_ROOT_PASSWORD_…

There is a whole section on the docker root password here … maybe there is part of a config you are missing?

The password properties specified in it just effect the WebUI Unfortunately.

I should have read that better. :expressionless: There is a long post here about getting to root on a container, does that help?

That only seems to effect the password for the webui , I may need to fork the docker file and have it install net tools and other packages during the build so that I can do some troubleshooting. Not a priority though as I abandoned the IPVlan idea for the moment.
