Re: [ansible-project] remote access to lxc containers on lxc-host without ssh inside the containers

One could argue that if you run lxc/lxd you're after system-like functionality (and not docker-style containers) hence you treat it the same way you'd treat a VM. One easy way of installing ssh inside a container is to use images with cloud-init. kind regards Pshem On Thu, 26 Jan 2017 at 06:14

Running a bunch of sshd on a single host in every container just for automation is the opposite to the lightweight idea of ansible. Currently the host has lxc installed, so the lxd connection will not work because it uses "lxc exec" instead of "lxc-attach" to run commands. I will give lxd a

Hello, I'm trying to configure lxc containers via ansible running on a remote host. I have ssh access to the remote host, but inside the containers there are no ssh services running. There is a lxc connection plugin that handle access to the containers via lxc-attach but it seems that this
