Installing keycloak on an LXD container

This method is suitable for development, it is not production-ready.

• Create your development LXD container, as mentioned in another post

• Download keycloak and use scp to send the downloaded file over to the container

• SSH into the container

• Untar keycloak

• Edit the configuration files, changing the bind addresses to 0.0.0.0 and the ports configuration to be offset by 100. This means editing the /standalone/configuration/standalone.xml file. Look for the interfaces and socket-binding-group sections.
