Dear all

I have set up a Jail environment exactly the way suggested by the man =20
page. Now, even though I have jails_enable=3D"YES" in my host rc.conf, =20
and the parameters are defined, it does not start on boot time. Also, =20
if I try to start it using the rc script like /etc/rc.d/jail start =20
<myJail>, it says configuring jail: and then Starting Jail: and simply =20
sits there.

to test it, I have run it manually, like
jail /Path/To/Jail <hostname> <IP> /bin/sh /etc/rc

and it ran properly -- like the services I want to offer from within =20
the jails started (those are not even configured in host, so it has to =20
be the jail), they are serving, but still there is no jail pid in =20
/var/run, no process called jail, and I'm at a loss.

I am running FreeBSD 6.2 stable updated last week and rebuilt (both =20
host and jail).

Any suggestion, further diagnosis or request for further info is =20
highly appreciated.

best regards
