docker-compose-dns

Example of a custom DNS implementation with bind9 for a Docker Compose project, additionally allowing communication between hosts in different networks using their hostnames.

To test this project you can simply use:

docker compose up

As is, this system allows name resolution only. If you want to establish any type of connection across networks you need to define new rules on your firewall settings. To do so on linux see: https://stackoverflow.com/a/51373066

sudo iptables -I DOCKER-USER -i br-########1 -o br-########2 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I DOCKER-USER -i br-########2 -o br-########1 -j ACCEPT

To remove these rules:

sudo iptables -L --line-numbers  # see rule indices
sudo iptables -D DOCKER-USER 1  # delete rule with num 1
