Chapter 2 - Lab: Container Login
Hi,
In the Lab regarding systemd-nspawn, the Debian container created presentes a login prompt. What's the user and password to login?
Other point: I tried to create a container using a different OS: using debootstrap I deployed a Ubuntu Trusty. After that I used systemd-nspawn -bD command to create the container in this OS.
As the next step I opened a new window and access de VM and using the machinectl commands I verify the status of the container and was running. I tried to access the container using machinectl login container name, but without sucess....
A message informing something about "a bus not present"....
In summary: how I can login the containers created using systemd-nspawn? What are the options for that?
Thanks!

Hi Robson,
The lab given in this chapter is to showcase that we can start the containers using systemd-nspawn.
If we would like to login, then we need to first set the password for root user or create a new user. For that can use chroot after the debootstrap step and before the systemd-nspawn step, like following:-
root@ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01:~# debootstrap --arch=amd64 stable ~/DebianJessie
root@ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01:~# chroot ~/DebianJessie/ /bin/bash
root@ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01:/# passwd
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: password updated successfully
root@ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01:~# systemd-nspawn -bD ~/DebianJessie
...
...
[ OK ] Started Update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes.
Debian GNU/Linux 8 ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01 console
ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01 login: root
Password:
Linux ubuntu-512mb-nyc3-01 4.4.0-77-generic #98-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 26 08:34:02 UTC 2017 x86_64
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
