root access

Root access to the containers is provided for testing and restoring purposes.

‼️ Please keep in mind that any change made to a container directly by ssh may be lost when the image is restarted. ‼️

To have persistent modifications, the Docker image or the docker-compose.yml must be modified.

If you have access to the main server and are part of the docker UNIX group, you can get a root access to a container is using docker-compose.

1. First, login in ssh with your personal account to the main server.
2. Execute the following (needs to be in the docker group or root priviledges) :

cd /home/VNC/prod/<user>
docker-compose exec vnc bash
