No. lxc-execute(1) is dedicated to run application containers with limited isolation. At this time, application containers share the user namespace with the host (AKA. lxc-execute doesn't pass CLONE_NEWUSER to clone(2)). > I am asking this question because when I execute this command > directory named base_system is created on my host system, but I want > it to create it on my base container because I want to to smbtorture > tests on many containers. > > How should I do this? Since all application containers use the host user namespace, once the user is created, it's available for all containers... do you have a problem with that ? > Please help me ASAP. > Thanks and Regards, > Nishant Mungse > > > On Thu, Nov 3, 2011 at 4:44 PM, nishant mungse > <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Greg, > > Thanks 4 reply.
