  # Create a forwarded port mapping which allows access to a specific port

  # Ansible, Chef, Docker, Puppet and Salt are also available. Please see the

The scripts from searx/searx#1803 create a searx, a filtron and a morty user. These user do not have read access to /root and /root/searx folder .. this is not a usual use case, so recommend to clone into any other directory

FYI: I now use synced folder simply by placing the vagrant file in my repository on the HOST system. In the GUEST the repository is now available at /vagrant .. this corresponds roughly to what I called "transparent" at the LXC discussion.

Forwarding one port:

config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 8888, host: 8888

is not enough. For a real live scenario the GUEST IP must be available from the HOST system. I tried to use the DHCP [ref] from virtualbox (this is roughly I know from LXC):

    Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
      config.vm.network "private_network", type: "dhcp"
    end

but this ends up in issue hashicorp/vagrant#11403 .. I'm looking forward for another solution.

Haven't found a workaround for the vagrant issue. To go further I used a static IP:

config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.50.4"

Can't say if it works for others (I have a IPv4 class-B subnet).

Hi @dalf I just want to inform you: I asked at vagrant about a work-around for the dhcp issue and got feedback, to test this monky patch.

May be tomorrow I have time to test it . I'll be back ;)
