yup, lxc-attach starts a process inside a running container. But it can starts only processes/programs that already exists (installed) inside a container.
May be I misunderstand Dominik Schulz, but what I mean -- how to execute/move a process from host OS inside a running container (i.e. without installing it inside; like run it in sandbox or move already running process). It is very close to recent thread "Howto/Tutorial wanted: Running an application inside a container" (btw, I succeeded your tutorial in that thread, except gui apps.) And, well, related question. I read a lot, that it's not good to run lxc-execute, and also you said > ...
