[lxc-users] lxd-p2c

[Aleksandar Ivanisevic]

Thanks! 

So far it works perfectly, even on centos6 with an ancient kernel. I have no idea on the workings of the lxd build system so I just googled “lxd-p2c binary” which pointed me to some ancient builds, the protocol probably changed million times since they were built.

This URL looks terribly ephemeral, is there a more reliable way to find it? I’m sure the binary I just downloaded will be outdated next time I need it.

How is it built exactly? Googling “how to build lxd-p2c” gives “go get github.com/lxc/lxd/lxd-p2c” <http://github.com/lxc/lxd/lxd-p2c%E2%80%9D?> but this doesn’t work. I’d like to eventually add a patch to it to specify a target cluster node.

regards,
