On the surface, it looks like jail(8) might just do what FreeVSD aims to provide. However, since jail(8) is only in 4.x, and lots of people (including myself) are still running 3.x, FreeVSD may be a good solution for those who aren't ready to upgrade to 4.x. I think the answer to this will come soon - I haven't waded through the patches that FreeVSD makes to killall, login, kill, chmod/chown/chgrp, inetd and various kvm routines. These patches will tell if FreeVSD is just "jail(8)-for-Linux." -- Matthew Emmerton Computer Partners IT Specialist To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
