This is a followup to my thread "linux-only jail possible?" of a few 
months ago. I've been pretty successful in my efforts and now have a jail 
which contains only CentOS binaries and runs Python, Apache, sshd, 
PostgreSQL, yum, rpm, etc without problems. Since that's what I plan to 
use for my current project I haven't tested much else but I expect good 
results from many other common programs and use cases.

I have documented my notes on the FreeBSD wiki. Thanks to bz@ for getting 
me access. Please look it over and give it a try if you have any 
interest:

Please let me know if you encounter anything inaccurate or incomplete in 
the howto, or if you have comments or additional information about it.

Please trim the CC: list on replies.

Thanks!
