Podman - Rootless Container Persistent Storage Question

[craig109]

How does one determine the correct permissions for the host directory when configuring a rootless container?

For example, if setting up a mysql database container, you can use the UID:GID of the mysql user in the container.

But what does one use otherwise?

Are we supposed to glean that information from the output of:

podman unshare cat /proc/self/uid_map

and

podman unshare cat /proc/self/gid_map ?

This topic was not well-covered in the class or the accompanying ebook.
