Running Docker on two hosts, bridged with Tinc

This Gist is similar to https://gist.github.com/noteed/8656989 which uses Open vSwitch instead of Tinc.

Setup

Download the install.sh script and run it:

Running Docker on two hosts, bridged with Open vSwitch

This Gist shows how to use Open vSwitch to bridge Docker containers on two hosts. It is based on this blog post http://goldmann.pl/blog/2014/01/21/connecting-docker-containers-on-multiple-hosts/.

A similar Gist using Tinc instead of Open vSwitch is available: https://gist.github.com/noteed/11031504.

Setup

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Follow these steps to install Graphite on a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 instance. Make sure you read and understand the commands because by the time you read this, things could be outdated.

Installing dependencies

# apt-get install libpq-dev

# apt-get install python-django python-django-tagging

I used to think that

ssh -X [email protected]

"just bloody worked". However this might not work - ssh must play ball on both sides of the link. On the remote (ssh server, X client) sshd must sit behind some port, tell Xlib to send X11 requests to it and then forward them back to you the X server (where the ssh client is). If the remote box is locked down to prevent this, you will get:

X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0

as part of an otherwise working login. As it happens, I am the admin of the remote box in question, so I followed the ArchWiki and went to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and uncommented
