Is the agent only available as a docker image? I quite like the option to run Cloudflare tunnels as a local service (e.g. in LXCs).
I'm sorry, I'm not that familiar with LXC.
Erwan will make binaries available ASAP, would that help you?
That would help, yes. 👍
LXCs are a form of virtualization. It's a container running its own isolated Linux userland while sharing the host's kernel and hardware resources.
