Are you doing this for rootless podman or rootfull? I hacked my way through this very thing and eventually got it working for rootless podman. It required some tricks but sadly I deleted the VM long ago and don't remember them. I vaguely remember I had to add the user into a special group on the host. "LogDriver=passthrough" rings bells for me. "LogTarget in /etc/systemd/system.conf" also seems familiar. Sorry I can't remember more. What you're trying is _possible_ though. --- Chris Evich (he/him) Senior Quality Assurance Engineer If there's a "hard-way", I'm the first one to implement it.

I wonder whats the current best approach for having the logs of one container accumulated at the host layer (journald).
The container runs systemd/journald and is started via a quadlet config with LogDriver=passthrough. So, everything that the container spells out via stderr/stdout is captured at the host layer.
How to pass everything of the container journald to the host journald? I played with LogTarget in /etc/systemd/system.conf without success.
I'd really appreciate any ideas!
