[Lxc-users] lxc-start an application as non-root

[Felix Geisendoerfer]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to use lxc to run a single application as a
non-root user.

The following seems to work, but I'm wondering if there is way to directly
instruct lxc to use a certain user rather than using sudo to drop root
privileges inside the container:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
$ xc-start -n my-container -- sudo -u myuser whoami
myuser
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Many thanks in advance,
