NanoServer in Windows Containers on Windows 10

Glad to see this making its way down. This build is super stable, probably the best one yet. Nice to be able to experiment around with containers on my surface pro 4. A bit of work right now, but power shell dsc/tooling and scripting can be used to make this more than trivial and i'm sure it will be packaged up nicer as feedback comes from the community.

Enjoying the new more open MS that lets the community see work in progress and try it out!

It's pretty obvious now that every time a unfavorable news hits HN frontpage, all of the sudden the news drops rapidly despite having most votes and engagement and another favorable news suddenly appears on the HN frontpage despite being 6 hours old and the other one being just 4 hours old.

I don't care who is behind that, but be assure it's pretty obvious.

@dang: Anyway, it seems the HN algorithms is gamed, and measures should be taken.

Maybe someone else's ten seconds of searching will be more productive than mine...

Since Windows containers rely on Hyper-V, will I be able to run them within a Hyper-V VM?

Thank you.

Wow all that work/configuration just to get a container running? I guess this is why Linux is winning the container wars.

On most Linux machines you can spin up a container as simply as

    sudo lxc-create -n [name] -t [template]

And start using it:

    sudo lxc-start -n [name]
    sudo lxc-attach -n [name]
