If 192.168.0.12 is your host IP, try creating the jail without IP 
address restrictions.  I don't think you can do that with with the old 
rc.conf-based specification, but with a jail.conf file (or from a 
command line), you just add "ip4=inherit" and don't mention an 
ip4.address at all.  That will create a jail that has access to all of 
the host IP addresses.
