Someone will have to help me with mac. As for Win10, if you use<br>

I assume you mean if you run command line rather than as a notebook.
There are a couple of ways to do this. Maybe the easiest way would
be to enable ssh inside the container and rather than giving a bash
prompt, allow people to log in with ssh -X.<br>

That is easy to do since the list is generated from a script.<br>
