That's it, you have a running Docker container. That's it, you have a running Docker container. Also note that Vagrant 1.6 has Docker [supported as a built-in provisioner](https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/docker/index.html) which can help you when configuring images.

### Entering a Docker Container
The "official" way to enter a docker container while it's running is to use `nsenter`, which uses [libcontainer under the hood](http://jpetazzo.github.io/2014/03/23/lxc-attach-nsinit-nsenter-docker-0-9/). Using an `sshd` daemon is [considered evil](http://jpetazzo.github.io/2014/06/23/docker-ssh-considered-evil/).
Unfortunately, nsenter requires some configuration and installation. Here's how to do it on MacOS:
* [How to enter a Docker container](https://blog.codecentric.de/en/2014/07/enter-docker-container/)
* [Docker debug with nsenter on boot2docker](http://blog.sequenceiq.com/blog/2014/07/05/docker-debug-with-nsenter-on-boot2docker/)
I can't quite figure out why you'd want to use `nsenter` over `docker attach`. This would be a good place for an editor to submit a pull request.
