I went through some strange ritual to somehow start system logging. I needed to track authorization through the PAM service.

My commands:

run --privileged ... image

Commands in container

apk add syslog-ng busybox-openrc rc-update add syslog boot rc-status touch /run/openrc/softlevel rc-service syslog start rc-service syslog status 

Then I tracked the logs in the file /var/log/messages
