You can use the lxc-console command to log in to a running container.
[root@host ~]# lxc-console -n name [-t tty_number]
If you do not specify a tty number, you log in to the first available terminal.
For example, log in to a terminal on ol6ctr1:
[root@host ~]# lxc-console -n ol6ctr1
To exit an lxc-console session, type
Ctrl-A followed by Q.
Alternatively, you can use ssh to log in to a
container if you install the lxc-0.9.0-2.0.5
package (or later version of this package).
To be able to log in using lxc-console, the
container must be running an /sbin/mingetty
process for the terminal. Similarly, using
ssh requires that the container is running
the SSH daemon (/usr/sbin/sshd).
