Just a quick question I'm hoping. When you install Gluu to a server (in my case this is Ubuntu), you have nslookup/ping tools in the operating systems itself. However if you log into the gluu server (service gluu-server-2.4.2 login), these tools are not available. My guess is they are just installed in the container. Is there a particular reason for this (i.e. keep it as lightweight as possible, security implications etc...)? I just wanted to do some fact finding before installing these, as they are useful if there are some address references not working. I could at least use them to rule out DNS issues for instance. Thanks!

If they are not needed, we don't install them in the container. We want to keep the container small.

You can use container package manager to install any additional packages.
