I'm new to Jails, and I would like to use a real jail then just using a chroot jail. Where I work, we use the Ensim software for hosting, and I find that very pricey and sluggish (and it runs on Fedora rather than Linux). They use a technique of chrooting sites and the sites users into an environment in /home/virtual/sitexxx/ I would like to be able to do the sam= e (but with Jail), but not quite sure how to go about it. Last time I tried t= o `make world DESTDIR=3D/my/jail/path` it failed (cannot remember the details right now) but it this where I start? Also do I need an individual IP for each jail? because each physical server will have 1 IP unless the customer requests a dedicated IP. Any help would be appreciated, and I have tried to research it but end up going round in circles. -- Regards, Nick Larsen Wellington NEW ZEALAND
