ec2c5e4398f9d65e5dfe61530f2556224733d1e6Lennart Poettering Note that kernel auditing is broken when used with systemd's
ec2c5e4398f9d65e5dfe61530f2556224733d1e6Lennart Poettering container code. When using systemd in conjunction with
801ad6a6a9cd8fbd58b9f9c27f20dbb3c87d47ddLennart Poettering containers, please make sure to either turn off auditing at
801ad6a6a9cd8fbd58b9f9c27f20dbb3c87d47ddLennart Poettering runtime using the kernel command line option "audit=0", or
801ad6a6a9cd8fbd58b9f9c27f20dbb3c87d47ddLennart Poettering turn it off at kernel compile time using:

privileges and assume this uid/gid for security reasons.
systemd will warn you during boot if /etc/mtab is not a
