This is one of the great reasons why docker is so cool. I use a mix of CentOS
and Debian hosts, but a docker container's image can be a different flavour
again. (I have some on alphine.) - And my running containers float between
hosts.

So this isnt an issue in docker, if software is designed and supported on
<insert linux distro> if you make it a container, it always works. (Caveat,
as long as it doesnt have kernel hooks - which 99% of apps dont.)

So I have ZT "inside" my BBS containers - which has another side benefit. If
you went rouge and decided to scan what else I have running on my ZT address,
you'd get nothing - because the container only has BBS inside it :)
