# LAN Orangutan - Docker Compose

# SUPPORTED ON LINUX ONLY.
#
# Docker Desktop on macOS and Windows runs Linux inside a virtual machine. The
# container never reaches your real network, and the virtual machine's gateway
# answers probes for addresses that do not exist, so a scan looks successful

# On macOS and Windows, download the binary and run it directly instead.

# LAN Orangutan detects this and warns at startup and on the dashboard, but it
# is better not to get there in the first place.
