marc zonzon : Thank you for the feedback. I will take a look at your advice and you may well be correct.

Basically I took my openvz experience and applied it to LXC, but I am learning LXC as I go.

(Disclaimer my system is Ubuntu 9.10 but should apply to other flavors as well)
If you followed the above instructions and it appears to not be working you should verify that the module name is correct and is enabled.

First check the module is enabled by looking in the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled directory. There should be s symbolic link named mod-security.load.

Look at the contents of that file ‘more mod-security.load’
The 2nd of that file was:
LoadModule security2_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_security2.so

So in one of your apache config files that is loaded you would need to specify it as:

SecServerSignature “Microsoft-IIS/5.0″

(spaced added after >’s in case they are interpreted by this editor)

You can verify that the module is working then with the above config by checking if ‘curl -i YOURDOMAIN.COM’ returns Microsoft-IIS/5.0 for the server instead of Apache.

I have tested your script and found somme minor inaccuracy / improvement.

You don’ have to mount:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
because it would mount your host pts not the guest. When doing it I was unable to ssh to my guest.

If you preserve your rc.sysinit.conf you don’t have to do the init in lxc.conf, it will be done in rc.sysinit.

The mkdir -p rootfs.ubuntu/var/run/network is of no use since you mount at boot a tmpfs on /var/run.

Comment on LXC – Linux Containers by Eric Lee Green

From the description, this sounds somewhat similar to FreeBSD jails, which similarly are a “hack” on top of chroot. Have you ever encountered FreeBSD jails, and if so, would you care to compare/contrast FreeBSD jails, OpenVZ, and LXC? I think that would be interesting information for anybody interested in lightweight containerization.

Blake: You are most welcome. Glad the template is working for you.

I will make a template for Ubuntu 10.04 (LTS) in the near future , but probably not make it available for download until 10.04 is released.

Thanks for posting this template. I tried using the newly updated 9.10 template posted on the openvz wiki and couldn’t get the networking to work. This template works without a hitch.

Thanks!
