Hi,
From what I can see in
https://github.com/geoserver/docker/blob/master/Dockerfile, there is no
mechanism in place in the geoserver docker image to support running it
as non-privileged user.
Is there a strong reason why not ? This is usually considered a good
practice not to run the docker containers as root, if it can be prevented.
The geOrchestra geoserver image, for instance, runs as uid 999. But it
is not using tomcat (uses jetty), which might change a bit the context,
I no expert on tomcat, but I believe this should not be too complicated
to set up.
I'd gladly spend some time working on the feature, if you see no
objection to it and think it would be of interest.
Best
Jean
