[lxc-users] Inotify does not work in a privileged container

[Saint Michael]

Incrond is a service that monitors directories for file events and fires a
script.
It fails inside an LXC container.
Is there something I need to add to the configuration to make it work?

 systemctl start incrond
Job for incrond.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See
"systemctl status incrond.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
