I have written a simple daemon who runs inside the (ubuntu) container and
to which I can communicate with also simple script. It looks like:

root at zoo:~# lxc -h
usage: lxc options container
options: -n  create new container
         -b  boot container
         -c  container console
         -x  execute command in container
         -s  shutdown container
         -l  list

root at zoo:~# lxc -b flupp

root at zoo:~# lxc -l
container              size (MB)   start-PID
egal                         606           0
flupp                        606        2455

root at zoo:~# uname -a
Linux zoo 2.6.39-020639rc3-generic #201104120912 SMP Tue Apr 12 09:16:19 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

root at zoo:~# lxc -x flupp uname -a
Linux flupp 2.6.39-020639rc3-generic #201104120912 SMP Tue Apr 12 09:16:19 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

root at zoo:~# lxc -x shutdown -h now
