''//docker exec -it <container id|name> <command>//'' \\
''//docker exec -it dcc0e627c5b2 bash//'' \\
''//docker exec -it nginx-base bash//'' \\
To exit the container, type ''//exit//'' at the command prompt within the container.
<code>
root@hdcdev01:~# docker exec -it dcc0e627c5b2 bash
root@dcc0e627c5b2:/# exit
exit
root@hdcdev01:~# 
root@hdcdev01:~# docker exec -it nginx-base bash
root@dcc0e627c5b2:/# exit
exit
root@hdcdev01:~#
</code>

===== Copy files from/to Docker Container =====

Use the Docker ''cp'' command to copy files.

Copy a specific file //TO// the container:
  docker cp foo.txt container_id:/foo.txt

Copy a specific file //FROM// the container:
  docker cp container_id:/foo.txt foo.txt

Copy multiple files from //source// to the //target// folder:
  docker cp source/. container_id:/target
  docker cp container_id:/source/. target
  
\\
===== Backup Docker Container =====
