[Lxc-users] Getting IP address of running container

[Robin Monjo]

Hello,

I need to know the IP address of a running container in order to add a port forwarding rule with iptables.  My containers are build using the default ubuntu template and use dhcp to obtain an IP.

I'm able to access the ip by reading the /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases file. However I'm not sure this is reliable.

What do you think ? Any better way to do it ?

Regards,
Robin
