libvirt users - Mar 2014 - Sending command to virtual machine

Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way how to execute a command inside of 
running virDomainPtr. For example call exec command but not on my computer, 
but on running virtual machine. If there is a way, what needs to be done for
it?
Thanks for answer!

This same question was asked earlier this week:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2014-March/msg00149.html

Short answer: if you use LXC, then use, 'virsh lxc-enter-namespace' does
just that.  If you use qemu, then you need to write a patch to qemu's
guest agent (not on this mailing list) or use some other agent of your
own creation.
