Here is how I got syslog to work with a program running in a container. After
creating a container, do something like this:
echo syslog setup
cat <<EOF > /etc/rsyslog.d/99-lxc-1.conf
\$AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/lxc/container1/rootfs/dev/log
EOF
restart rsyslog
If you are using rsyslog, of course. The rsyslog daemon only supports 100 unix
domain sockets. So, I guess that means 1 for the host /dev/log and 99 more for
containers.
My program happily uses syslog and they end up in the host syslog.

Subject: Use host syslog socket in container
I am running a program in a container. The program uses syslog and I'd like
the /dev/log socket in the container to refer to /dev/log in the host file
system.
Suggestions?
Regards.
