IMHO lxc-execute should come with a BIG warning "DON'T USE UNLESS YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!" :P Anyway, to answer you question, if you want to use lxc-execute, you need to have lxc installed in the guets container as well. To be accurate, you need /usr/lib/lxc/lxc-init inside the guest container. "lxc-create" does NOT install lxc in guest container because it's not needed for "nornal" operation (e.g. lxc-start). -- Fajar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Lxc-users mailing list Lxc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
