Hi all,

as i'm using a farm of LXC hosts I want to add a  network wire feature  to the 
"API wishlist". In fact, this might be some frontend daemon, which offers 
remote network access to local LXC in conjunction with a proxy client 
counterpart, which will locally provide the API of an remote host. To be 
serious, this network interface will need some kind of authentication.

To allow access to multiple remote hosts, the usage of the LXC-API will need 
some (optional) address feature. And the userland programs either all need to 
support an option for this. Or there might be a clever trick to pass it's run 
to an special proxy program (use 'lxc-proxy remote  lxc-foo ...' instead of 
'lxc-foo ...') or an environment variable evaluated by the API-lib (use 
'lxc_proxy=remote lx-foo ...').

This set of features will allow on to build up an application for centralized 
LXC cluster status visualization and control.


Greetings

Guido
