[lxc-users] lxc-create using lxc.idmap?

[Harald Dunkel]

Hi folks,

is there a way to tell lxc-create to support a custom(!) UID and
GID map via lxc.idmap? Each container should get its own mapping.

Problem behind this is that some containers may affect each other
by exceeding the maximum number of threads. (Is this as expected?
This is lxc 2.0.9.)

Subuids/subgids are not an option. I would like to use something
like

% su -
# lxc-create -t debian \
	-o "lxc.idmap = u 0 100000 65536" \
	-o "lxc.idmap = g 0 100000 65536" ...

to set the mapping right from the start, without touching /etc/lxc/\
default.conf.

Do you think this could be possible?
