Hi, I have 5 publicly routed ips from my isp. On the host (Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS) Have /etc/network/interfaces as so:
# The loopback network interface auto lo p4p1 iface lo inet loopback iface p4p1 inet manual auto br0 iface br0 inet static bridge_ports p4p1 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 bridge_maxwait 0 address 104.250.137.138 netmask 255.255.255.248 gateway 104.250.137.137 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 #----------------------------------- I create a user (lxcuser) that will have unprivileged containers. When I create containers, I edit (as user lxcuser): ~/.local/share/lxc/$container/config and change: lxc.network.ipv4 = $ipnumber i.e. lxc.network.ipv4 = 104.250.137.141 I also change ~/.local/share/lxc/$container/rootfs/etc/network/interfaces and put in there like: # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback #auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 104.250.137.141 gateway 104.250.137.137 netmask 255.255.255.248 #-------------------------------------------- I have a couple of containers running and it shows: lxc-ls --fancy NAME STATE IPV4 IPV6 GROUPS AUTOSTART ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ubpdns RUNNING 104.250.137.139 - - NO ubsharedweb RUNNING 104.250.137.141, 104.250.137.141 - - NO a few questions: 1) Do I need to specify this IP in both the config file and the rootfs/etc/network/interfaces file? Is there a better way to do this? 2) why does one container (ubsharedweb) show the same IP address twice? 3) How is user lxcuser able to just take whatever IP's it wants? I have: "lxcuser veth lxcbr0 100" in /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet So I'm guessing that is how it can do it, but how can I constrain lxcuser to only use IP's within a certain range? 4) starting up a container (ubuntu 14.04) takes about 8 seconds, I can then lxc-attach to it. But it takes a couple of minutes before I can ssh into it. Is this normal? 5) in ~/.local/share/lxc I see: drwxrwx--- 3 296608 lxcuser 4096 Apr 27 16:08 ubsharedweb should that container directory be owned by lxcuser or is 296608 the correct user id? all container directories are the same except for one which is lxcuser:lxcuser. I don't know why the one is different. thanks in advance, -joe _______________________________________________ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
