I read someone was trying to get Samba AD working in a container and now I am curious what else you guys are working on.

(PS: If that someone is still working on it you might try running DNS and LDAP in separate containers with samba running bare metal. Samba nor Linux supports windows distributed filesystems so you likely need either a central file share or rsync.)

I was trying to get yacy working in a tiny container, but the dang thing kept crashing after indexing about 500,000 sites. Yacy is like a peer to peer web crawler. Too busy to dig into it and figure out why.

I've tried getting yacy to work on two separate occasions. I've thrown generous resources at it but never had a satisfying experience.

So it's not just me. I watched its memory use rock slowly up until it ran out, then it died.

That makes more sense. I think self hosted search engines are a interesting idea but they are hard to make work usually

Properly setting up a full AD domain coupled with rhel IDM and SSO. Getting them all to play nice together is a bit of work to say the least.

Containerise oxidised and syslog-ng because I am annoyed that we have no automated way to update the config of those with our current automation.

Idk if it counts as crazy or unusual, per se... but, another OpenStack deployment.

Moving our naemon/thruk/pnp instance to omd. I need to figure out how to manage it with ansible and add our own authentication. Otherwise I hope it is easier to maintain.

Running personal active directory hybrid sync with azure, hybrid exchange, a separate red forest for management of vSphere infrastructure, using saltstack for Linux config management. ~50 VMs and containers.
