help setting up my rootless container
by Felix Rubio
Hi everybody,
I hope somebody can give me a hand, as I have looked around for many hours
unsuccessfully already. I am setting up a number of rootless containers, each
one run by its ad-hoc user, and some of those need to communicate between
them. To do this, I am publishing their ports on a veth (10.255.255.1) and...
I cannot get them to see each other. I have also tried with the --network=host
parameter (assuming I would loose the network sandboxing then), to no luck.
I am using podman 5.4 on debian trixie, in case that matters.
Anybody has any idea on what might be wrong? Thank you for any help you can
provide!

Re: [Podman-desktop]Podman Desktop fails to detect WSL2 even though installed – Need vendor guidance
by Jeff Maury
Sekar,
If you provide an installation package, so I would recommend that you
install Podman in addition to Podman Desktop and that once both are
installed, you create a Podman machine so that users have everything setup.
Podman installers are available at github.com/containers/podman

Can you provide more details on the scenario? When does it happen? What's
the error message?
Thanks
