Prerequisites for using ssh in a docker container: the ssh-agent must have a identity assigned - this can be checked with `ssh-add -l` and can be added to the agent with `ssh-add` But this assignment ist not persistent between reboots, ssh-add has to be called each time after reboot for a successful use of ssh in a docker container. Now, the idea is, to alter the prepareMac4L3d script and call `ssh-add` after the setup of the socat-container: ``` [...] shell SOCATID=$(docker container ls --all -q -f name=l3d_socat) if [[ -n ${SOCATID} ]]; then echo "All set!" # new line following: ssh-add exit 0 fi exit 1 ``` I've tested this approach on my macbook and it works - what do you think?
