@leiless Thanks for introducing that. really nice.

Hi guys, simple question: what's the meaning of && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* given by the docker doc, and should I do it in my Dockerfile?

@ZYinMD ubuntu:22.04 image had it empty and it increased even if I did apt-get clean. removing it would not harm anything.

1. If you have an SSH server on your container, remove your SSH server ASAP. It is not needed to enter inside. That is a FAQ.

There are a number of containers that require allow ssh ingress to the container for legitimate reasons - gitea, gitlab, ssh tunnel deployments, etc

I think the better way to word what you're trying to say is:

If you need to access the shell within the container or execute arbitrary commands inside the container and can remote in to the host, it is advised that you run docker exec -it <container-name> <shell command> (example: docker exec -it traefik sh) from the host rather than install an SSH server in the container.
