<p>Thx all for the replies,</p>
<p>- lxc-version returns 0.8.0. Looking around, there might be a more current unstable, but AFAIK it's the most recently released stable.</p>
<p>- I'd have to re-run to get the SSL error again but I think I've described its error accurately, no further explanation except that the identity of the remote server cannot be authenticated. This would lead me to guess that the server is not registered properly with a public CA (eg using a CA root that isn't in a bootstrap Fedora) so guessing that perhaps an option should be offered that allows over-riding authentication? SSL encryption of course should still be implemented for security.</p>
<p>- The lxc-create issue is definitely there. At first, I encountered it using the openSUSE YAST LXC container applet. but then when I invoked lxc-create from a console, but the "help" verifies it supports few options and not these. But, as I described if the template requires parameters, it's also possible to simply provide them in the script instead of at runtime as command switches (but might not be apparent at first to someone reading your script).</p>
