[Lxc-users] a newbie question about loading kernel modules in container

Hi guys,

I am a newbie to lxc and preparing to deploy it in my production
environment to give each user a container. I have the following two
concerns now.

1. Can user load kernel modules in the guest container without influencing
the host kernel or other container's kernel? As far as I understand, all
the lxc containers share the same kernel of the host. So I am wondering if
this is possible?

2. Or how is the container's security isolation? Can I give user root
access in the container? Is there any hack that he/she can use root in the
container to attack the host or other containers?

Thanks a lot for answering my stupid questions.

Regards,
Peter
