FINALLY managed to punch a hole in the firewall…

FINALLY managed to punch a hole in the #firewall that allowed the #docker image to make DNS calls outward so I can actually federate this instance!

(really wanted to punch docker)

Problem was I had to restart the docker service after updating the firewall rules.

#awall #AlpineLinux

Comment by @ikke@ipv6.social:

if you combine awall and docker, make sure you set the awall_dedicated_chains variable to true. This will make sure awall does not interfere with the rules that docker adds. See https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/awall#control-variables

My response:

Thank you! I suspect you’ve just saved me a future headache the next time something restarts!
