  • bind-tools - The ISC DNS tools (dig, nslookup, host).
  • curl - Tool to transfer data from or to a server.
  • htop - A ncurses-based process viewer for Linux. (built from source, allows to watch the host's processes)
  • iotop - Simple top-like I/O monitor.
  • iptraf-ng - An IP Network Monitoring tool.

  • tcpdump - Dump traffic on a network.
  • tshark - network protoccol analyzer - console version.
  • vim - Vi IMproved, a programmers text editor.

Running the container

Use --net=host allows tcpdump to access the host's network interfaces.

Use -v /proc:/proc_host allows htop to watch the host's processes. Note that htop is unable to kill any host's processes.

Optionally you can create a local directory and map it to the container like -v /tmp/data/:/tmp/data/:

mkdir /tmp/data

docker run \
    --rm \
    --name toolkit \
    --net=host \
    -v /proc:/proc_host \
    -v /tmp/data/:/tmp/data/ \
    -it \
    jonathadv/admin-toolkit \
