[lxc-users] Syscall auditing via auditd for lxc-guests

Hello List,

It seems that auditd cannot be started in guest:

# augenrules --load 
The audit system is disabled

The host system seems to miss the audit events from the guest, so no host
audit either.

Is there a way to audit guest syscalls, e.g. execve? There is no need to
have the guest doing that, it could be also on host for guest. In fact I
would even appreciate later solution where the host audits the guest without
any means by the guest to escape the audit.

Could some namespace trickery make it work?

Kind Regards,
Roman
