Using Docker with LDAP

https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker/wiki/LDAP

create space

git clone https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker
cd netbox-docker
mkdir netbox-media-files && chmod -R 0777 netbox-media-files   # Usually you would use volume and let that manage perms. You will want to lock this down from 0777

docker-compose.override.yml - change as needed

docker exec -it cfb61805xxxx  psql -U netbox -c "CREATE DATABASE netbox2"
cat new-netbox.sql | docker exec -i cfb61805xxxx  psql -U netbox -d netbox2
