As I said... I was not certain. Sad it's still not there yet. > Wrt the original question I agree with Michael: a missing lxc-attach is > not *that* problematic as you can work around it with ssh. However if > lxc-attach actually worked, that would be very yummy. You are absolutely correct. If we can't get systemd to play nicely with console getty's on tty? then we absolutely need this, since their actions have rendered the lxc-console useless. My problem was that you can not depend on ssh for a variety of reason as you are provisioning containers. I could get an F17 container provisioned but then I had no ssh and no consoles. I was shooting in the dark until Serge worked out a patch for what I was uncovering. If you can't get networking up and running, you can't get ssh up and running and, if you don't have consoles, you can't begin to debug WHY you don't have networking up and running. > Thanks, > *t > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management. > Stay in control, update software, and manage PCs from one command center > Diagnose problems and improve visibility into emerging IT issues > Automate, monitor and manage.
