Basic docker networking? (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! I'm going at my first docker attempt...and I'm going in Proxmox. I created an LXC container, from which I installed docker, and portainer. Portainer seems happy to work, and shows its admin page on port 9443 correctly. I tried next running the image of immich, following the steps detailed in their own guide. This...doesn't seem to open the admin website on port 2283. But then again, it seems to run in its own docker internal network (172.16.0.x). How should I reach immich admin page from another computer in the same network? I'm new to Docker, so I'm not sure how are images supposed to communicate within the normal computer network...Thanks!

Wait, you're running docker inside lxc? I would not do that. I would create a full VM and run docker in there. Or, if that's all you're running, skip proxmox and install Debian or whatever on bare metal, and docker on that.

Sure...But proxmox is already there. It's installed and it runs 5VMs and about 10 containers. ...I'm not going to dump all that just because I need docker...and I'm not getting another machine if I can get use that. So...sure, there might be overhead, but I saw some other people doing it, and the other alternative I saw was running docker on a VM...which is even more overhead. And I fear running it on the proxmox server bare metal, it might conflict with how it manages the LXC containers.

Jim’s Garage on YT, he recently did a video about running Docker in an LXC. I think you’ll find the info you need there. It can be done, but if you’re new to Docker and/or LXCs, it adds an additional layer of complexity you will have to deal with for every container/stack you deploy.
