-Please see the COPYING file for details on copying and usage.
-Please refer to the INSTALL file for instructions on how to build.

-What is lxc:
-
- The container technology is actively being pushed into the mainstream linux
- kernel. It provides the resource management through the control groups aka
- process containers and resource isolation through the namespaces.
-
- The linux containers, lxc, aims to use these new functionnalities to pro-
- vide an userspace container object which provides full resource isolation
- and resource control for an applications or a system.
-
- The first objective of this project is to make the life easier for the ker-
- nel developers involved in the containers project and especially to con-
- tinue working on the Checkpoint/Restart new features. The lxc is small
- enough to easily manage a container with simple command lines and complete
- enough to be used for other purposes.
-
-Using lxc:
-
- Refer the lxc* man pages (generated from doc/* files)
-
-Downloading the current source code:
-
- Source for the latest released version can always be downloaded from
- http://lxc.sourceforge.net/download/lxc
-
- You can browse the up to the minute source code and change history online.
- http://lxc.git.sourceforge.net
-
- For detailed build instruction refer to INSTALL and man lxc man page
- but a short command line should work:
- ./configure && make && sudo make install && sudo lxc-setcap
- preceded by ./autogen.sh if configure do not exist yet.
-
-Getting help:
-
- when you find you need help, you can check out one of the two
- lxc mailing list archives and register if interested:
- https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-devel
- https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
-
-Portability:
-
- lxc is still in development, so the command syntax and the API can
- change. The version 1.0.0 will be the frozen version.
-
- lxc is developed and tested on Linux since kernel mainline version 2.6.27
- (without network) and 2.6.29 with network isolation.
- is compiled with gcc, and supports i686, x86_64, ppc, ppc64, S390 archi.
