With LXC and LXD you can run system containers, which are containers that behave like a full operating system (like a Virtual Machine does). There are already official container images for most Linux distributions. When you run lxc launch ubuntu:18.04 mycontainer, you are using the ubuntu: repository of container images to launch a container with …

Using Arduino IDE for the ESP32 in a LXD container
The ESP32 is a dual-core microcontroller that has both WiFi and Bluetooth. The ESP32 is the next generation of the older single-core microcontroller ESP8266 that only had WiFi. You can perform most tasks that you did with the various Arduinos but with the ESP32 (or ESP8266) and you also have WiFi embedded into the microcontroller. …

How to manage LXD from within one of its containers
In a LXD (lex-dee) installation there is the host (where the LXD service is running) and there are the containers that you create. On the host, you can run the various lxc subcommands (like lxc list to get a list of the containers). The containers, on the other hand, are by default confined and isolated …

Configuring public IP addresses on cloud servers for LXD containers
You have a cloud server and you got more than one public IP addresses. How do you get those additional IP addresses to associate to specific LXD containers? That is, how do you get your LXD container to use a public IP address? This post has been tested with a packet.net baremetal server. Prerequisites You …
