HI ALL:
My aim is to run a Graphical application in a container, then an
user connect to the container with a GUI interface, so that he can see
and operate the application.
As I want to separate all resources, I think I'll need a system
container. Now I already use lxc-create -n maverick-lxc-template -t
maverick -f /tmp/maverick-template-network.conf to create an Ubuntu
template, start it and use lxc-console to get a console of it.
Now my question is:
1. If I want to run an application, do I have to install it in the
system container first?
no.
2. How can I connect to the container with a GUI interface?
It depends on how you've set up the container's network and where the
guest will connect from.
If your container were using a veth connected to libvirt's virbr0, and
the application is available on port , then your guest could simply
ssh -L :container_ip_addr:
and then connect to port on his local host. For instance, if you
were opening up vnc on :1 in the container, the container is
192.168.122.89, and your host is 10.0.1.1, then he would do
ssh -L 5951:192.168.122.89:5901 10.0.1.1
and then
vncviewer :51
You can also put the container straight onto your local network, but
the above works with how containers creation is usually shown.
