+# Container with Kubernetes
+
+## Capabilities
+
+By default, Docker containers are "unprivileged" and cannot, for example, run a Docker daemon inside a Docker container. We can have fine grain control over the capabilities using cap-add and cap-drop.More details [here](https://docs.docker.com/reference/run/#runtime-privilege-linux-capabilities-and-lxc-configuration).
+
+The relationship between Docker's capabilities and [Linux capabilities](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/capabilities.7.html)
