    To use multiple startup commands you need to either join them together using & or create an executable, something like this:
    Dockerfile:

    ...
CMD /start.sh

    start.sh:

    #!/bin/bash
service ssh start
ngrok tcp 22 --log=stdout > ngrok.log
....

    Make sure the last command does not exit or the container will shutdown too. There are issues with running multiple commands like you cannot get logs using "docker logs" from the commands you ran, only the last executable etc.

    The can only be one CMD command, incase we provide multiple ones in a docker file the last one will take effect. https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#cmd
