# Dockerizing an SSH Daemon Service
## Build an `eg_sshd` image
The following `Dockerfile` sets up an SSHd service in a container that you
can use to connect to and inspect other container's volumes, or to get
quick access to a test container.

## Environment variables
Using the `sshd` daemon to spawn shells makes it complicated to pass environment
variables to the user's shell via the simple Docker mechanisms, as `sshd` scrubs
the environment before it starts the shell.
If you're setting values in the Dockerfile using `ENV`, you'll need to push them
to a shell initialisation file like the `/etc/profile` example in the Dockerfile
above.
If you need to pass`docker run -e ENV=value` values, you will need to write a
short script to do the same before you start `sshd -D` - and then replace the
`CMD` with that script.
## Clean up
Finally, clean up after your test by stopping and removing the
container, and then removing the image.
