|
|
|
+Starting with Docker v.1.2.0, you can now edit `/etc/hosts`, `/etc/hostname`
|
|
|
+and `/etc/resolve.conf` in a running container. This is useful if you need
|
|
|
+to install bind or other services that might override one of those files.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note, however, that changes to these files will not be saved by
|
|
|
+`docker commit`, nor will they be saved during `docker run`.
|
|
|
+That means they won't be saved in the image, nor will they persist when a
|
|
|
+container is restarted; they will only "stick" in a running container.
