64-bit Linux Container

  • Alpine Linux

    For Alpine Linux systems, be aware of the following:

    • Alpine Linux is not designed to call the "create home dir" function; so, that means that users will be able to login but they will not have a home directory like on other Linux platforms.
    • You may need to make sure that UsePAM and ChallengeResponseAuthentication or KbdInteractiveAuthentication are both set to yes in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config files.
    • The NSS service doesn't have an /etc/nsswitch.conf file like on other Linux platforms, so you will need to create the /etc/nsswitch.conf file manually.

ARM Linux Distributions

  • RHEL 7.6 and higher
