Re: [lxc-users] Can a container modify the host rtc?

Interesting - we've had OVZ containers running as ntp servers, being granted the ability to set the RTC via the CAP_SYS_TIME capability. (never more than one per physical host though) Jake On Tue, Jul 26, 2016 at 9:58 AM, Stewart Brodie wrote: > Paul Giordano wrote: > > > Running LXD 2.0.3 > >

[lxc-users] Can a container modify the host rtc?

Running LXD 2.0.3 I'm trying to have a container be an ntp server, but the container gets an EPERM trying to set the hw clock: clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, {1469546956, 258938000}) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) adjtimex(0x7b0d6bf0) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) settimeofd

[lxc-users] removing cgmanager

Thank you for your reply. I tried the way you suggested. ran a lxc cirros container and replaced lxd container's rootfs with lxc container's. Restarted it and when I try to enter it with 'lxc exec /bin/bash', nothing happens. In lxc.log, i get an error. Any ideas? "ERRORlxc_attach - attach.c:l
