Hi, we're running only 3 containers in privileged mode: cobbler, rsyslog and mcollective. Running all the containers in privileged mode is not a good idea for security reasons. Docker manages DNAT forwarding itself, so it does not create any overhead for us.
> Is there any real benefits of using separate namespaces in security terms? Of course, for example only ports specified in EXPOSE line in Dockerfile are exposed to the host network. So if you start any additional tcp/udp listeners inside the containers, their ports won't be accessible from the host network.
