LXC for Debian
--------------

Most templates ship without a root password, so you cannot login with
 lxc-console -n <container>
You can, however, get a shell (without a tty) by running
 lxc-attach -n <container>

If you really need a root password set, you can do so by calling
 lxc-attach -n <container> passwd
or you could allow a password-less login by calling
 lxc-attach -n <container> sed -i '/root/ s/:\*:/::/' /etc/shadow
After either of these you will be again able to login via lxc-console.
