1. If you need ipv6 support, you should enable it by following https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/docker-ipv6-support.md.
1. Do not forget to set the mentioned environmental variables `PATH` and `DOCKER_HOST` and in best case add them to your `~/.bashrc` file as shown!
1. Also do not forget to run `loginctl enable-linger USERNAME` (and substitute USERNAME with the correct one) in order to make sure that user services are automatically started after every reboot.
1. Expose the privileged ports by following https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/rootless/#exposing-privileged-ports. (`sudo setcap cap_net_bind_service=ep $(which rootlesskit); systemctl --user restart docker`). If you require the correct source IP you must expose them via `/etc/sysctl.conf`, [see note below](#note-regarding-docker-network-driver).

If you require the correct source IP you must expose them via `/etc/sysctl.conf`, [see note below](#note-regarding-docker-network-driver).
1. Use the official AIO startup command but use `--volume $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro` instead of `--volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro` and also add `--env WATCHTOWER_DOCKER_SOCKET_PATH=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/docker.sock` to the initial container startup (which is needed for mastercontainer updates to work correctly). When you are using Portainer to deploy AIO, the variable `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is not available. In this case, it is necessary to manually add the path (e.g. `/run/user/1000/docker.sock`) to the Docker compose file to replace the `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` variable. If you are not sure how to get the path, you can run on the host: `echo $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`.
1. Now everything should work like without docker rootless. You can consider using docker-compose for this or running it behind a reverse proxy. Basically the only thing that needs to be adjusted always in the startup command or compose.yaml file (after installing docker rootles) are things that are mentioned in point 3.
