Hi,<div><br></div><div>I've been looking into this for a few days without any success. When I create an LXC container using lxc-ubuntu shell script, then my containers can successfully obtain an IP address via DHCP.</div>
<div><br></div><div>However when I create a container using lxc-sshd, then I need to specify the IP address manually for it to acquire an IP. I think I know why this is happening (SSHD container has its own init script which probably forgoes all network service initialization). I'd really like my SSHD container to acquire an IP dynamically.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Things I've tried so far:</div><div><br></div><div>1) Running "dhclient"</div><div>2) Running ifup eth0</div><div><br></div><div>I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 operating system, and here is the contents of /etc/network/interfaces (container's point of view)</div>
