2018-12-08 09:07:30 km description Prior filing this as potential bug help was sought but did not yield a remedy https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/3-0-2-bug-cannot-create-root-password-in-privileged-container/3425 host - ubuntu cosmic with 4.18.0-12 kernel / systemd 239-7 / apparmor 2.12 Whilst there is no issue with creating a root password via lxc-attach and passwd in an unprivileged container it is however not possible to create a password the same way for a privileged container (tried centos 7 and ubuntu cosmic). Error reported from within the containers: passwd: System error passwd: Authentication token manipulation error Error reported at the host: passwd: PAM audit_log_acct_message() failed: Operation not permitted Next tried with: chroot /srv/lxc/container_name/rootfs passwd but that produced the same error. Next tried with: lxc.cap.keep = CAP_AUDIT_WRITE but the container would not boot. Next tried with: lxc.apparmor.profile = unconfined but no remedy. Next switched the kernel to 4.19.7 but no dice either.
