Hi Stefan,

The docker rotor support is still on the missing features table.

Thinking out of the box, maybe configure a remote connection inside the docker container to a rotctld daemon running on the physical host.

Maybe this community post can help you further

This one also works, but uses a separate stack. You need to specify the host IP to connect on port 4533, 127.0.0.1 or localhost will not work from the containers iirc.

thx for your answer - this is indeed the best solution for me, because I usually have the rotor plugged to the win-pc - works out of the box.
