It's a debian VM, much better than messing with the android system. All I want now is bridged mode for the network adapters
It appears to be running behind NAT but it's already have an easy port forwarding feature where I was able to connect to a server running on the VM by connecting to localhost in Termux.
Can you forward ports below 1024? I don't get the notification when it's these ports that require sudo.
I didn't try because I assume I can't. π Cause that would require root on Android, or special capability.
E: Yeah it doesn't seem to work.
I have sudo on the VM doens't make sense to me that i would need root on the Host
Right but think about it. Any ports open on the host are opened by processes running on the host. If a process on the host wants to open 443, the host OS would ask for root. Now think about the VM from the point of view of the host. It's just another running process. If it tries to open 443 - it's gotta have root or it will fail. It doesn't matter what permissions the process inside the VM has. In fact the host doesn't even know about that process. To the host, the VM process wants to open protected port.
