Dockerfiles for MS Dynamics NAV - root directory

Instantiate single independent NAV container. The SQL must be already present somewhere and must be accessible.

• _run.sqlAuth.ps1

  • Creates an independent NAV container on the default network (we are considering to be a nat network).
  • This container requires an existing and accessible SQL server instance. The authentication between NAV and SQL service will be provided via SQL login so you have to enable Mixed Mode on the SQL server and create/know a SQL server login with db_owner privileges on the target database.
  • NAV user authentication uses NavUserPassword.
  • Please, just change all necessary parameters (-e values) in the script, eventually, you also change the network driver and remove port mappings etc.
  • On the nat network you have to map the ports (-p flag) to be able access them (then you access the host ports from the other machines).

• _run.winAuth.transparentNet.ps1

  • This demo requires gMSA to be active and properly configured!!!
  • Creates an independent NAV container on a transparent network. This type of networking allows you to integrate the containers fully with your network. You can use DHCP to assign an IP address automatically or you can assign a static one. You can then access the container using its --hostname or the statically assigned IP address from any device on the same network. Please, read about Docker Networking to understand all related details.
  • You need to set --hostname parameter to match your gMSA account name (current limitation of the Docker).
  • This container requires an existing and accessible SQL server instance. The database already should be present on the instance. The authentication between NAV and SQL server will be provided via Windows Authentication so you have to create a Windows login on the SQL server with db_owner privileges on the target database.
  • NAV user authentication uses Windows. This must be properly created in the target database.
  • On the transparent network you don`t map the ports, you just expose them (--expose flag).

• _run.winAuth.natNet.ps1

  • Creates an independent NAV container on the default network (we are considering to be a nat network).
  • This demo requires gMSA to be active and properly configured.
  • You need to set --hostname parameter to match your gMSA account name (current limitation of the Docker).
