I'm running FreeBSD 11 using IOCage for jails. Thus far, I have a couple questions here: 1) When I portsnap fetch extract in a jail, I get a message telling me that /usr/ports is not writable. When I touch a file in /usr/ports I'm told it's a read-only filesystem, but mount only shows the root directory being mounted. Is this typical? if so, how should ports be installed? I read that you should not build ports in a jail, but a few of the jails I am using have different port builds from the pkg defaults. I need to build them individually. Is there a better way to do this? 2) I seen some information about setting a property on IOCage that allows zfs datasets to be mounted into the jail. There is already a dataset being used though; is there a way to mount multiples? To provide some context, I want to run Samba from within a jail. I wish to nullfs-mount the /storage/media into the jail to enable Samba to access it. 3) I am running FreeBSD-11. Is there a good way to update short of rebuilding everything? I don't mind doing that, but it's somewhat time consuming. Also mergemaster has a bad habbit of breaking my /etc/passwd files, etc. Thanks, - -- Take care, Ty Twitter: @sorressean Web: https://tysdomain.com Pubkey: https://tysdomain.com/files/pubkey.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJW7cSKAAoJEAdP60+BYxejE8MH/Rc4rMvzbeJV73suAbZt+Lqe dqi1KGaes31XWvy2ezkmr6N6kC5lU8sSYboxhIpiGYUaKuAFAp2DdSyk3EOGc3e+ ZwxX/erD1exy0CHpEVstOXVwtwOHTUcrlmdLpozj0OHtgMiOi6uE1KucCK+olli1 B+hIebpDelK66zzm1fUo4CKvRNm8qLmBZ2Pagln7fFdaUOGupDMVln70o5sQxbbc AWGCH1saABMj5kTLL/wxmODC+DgBKar7KaMDBjdEX3DfWatZ8//IDktcfx3lbnbh 7O8zjN9tekAoQafOZvwjj/4Z9DVUXDTwa5koy4CzL8GFWEK7/ZLwIlNpeCCzbrM= =eLu1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
