<br>
thank you for your fast response.<br>
<br>
My id on the host is indeed 1000. I read your blog article and then had<br>
a look at /etc/subuid:<br>
<br>
before:<br>
"me@host:~$ cat /etc/subuid<br>
lxd:100000:65536<br>
root:100000:65536<br>
me:165536:65536"<br>
<br>
after:<br>
"me@host:~$ cat /etc/subuid<br>
lxd:100000:65536<br>
root:100000:65536<br>
me:165536:65536<br>
root:1000:1"<br>
<br>
root seems to be already set up, maybe this is due to lxd being<br>
installed on ubuntu 16.04? It would be really helpful if you could<br>
explain to me what the mapping defined in this file really does. Does it<br>
make a difference if I add your line, or use the one already there? How<br>
does this file use the numbers (100000 and 65536)? Does 1000:1 tell<br>
ubuntu to map the id 1 to 1, if so, what does 100000:65536 mean? Add<br>
65536 to the 100000? If there is a user called "me" in the conatainer,<br>
does a line "me:1000:1" work as well?<br>
<br>
I appreciate any help.<br>
<br>
with kind regards,<br>
John<br>
<br>
P.S.:<br>
I answered to the mailing list, is this the right way to do it, or<br>
should I answer to you directly?<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br>

Hello,<br>
I have a directory on my host system and want to create several containers<br>
with the same users inside. I would like to pass the directory through to<br>
each container and allow the users to write and read on it. The network<br>
connection should be done using macvlan.<br>
The howtos I have read so far show how to set up lxd, which works very<br>
well on my 16.04 host. Starting a container works out of the box as<br>
unpriviliged user as well.<br>
My questions:<br>
Is it even possible to share one directory on the host with several<br>
container?<br>
All the howtos I could find mention some commands, that need to be<br>
applied, but they do not tell me about the commands I need to type in to<br>
make it work:<br>
<br>
"That means you can create a container with the following configuration:<br>
<br>
lxc.id_map = u 0 100000 65536<br>
<br>
lxc.id_map = g 0 100000 65536"<br>
<br>
There is a big list of possible options on github, but where does it tell<br>
how to apply them?<br>
Does someone know a detailed howto, that describes a similiar setup like<br>
mine?<br>

while ago talking about how to set this up with your home directory.<br>
You can mimic the settings for whatever user map you want, though.<br>

Every time I read something, I feel like missing something important,<br>
because I could not find a coherent compendium of possible options on how<br>
to do something.<br>
kind regards,<br>
