Try copying the jail first as follows to retain permissions: stop the jail mkdir /usr/jail/newjail cd /usr/jail/origjail tar -cpf - . | tar -C /usr/jails/newjail -xpf - (don't worry about sockets not copying) If you want to copy the jail, change hostname, delete ssh public keys and change any other info pertinent to the jail. I just grep the hostname and ip in /etc and /usr/local/etc. Test the jail. It should work fine. If you want to remove the original jail, chflags -R noschg origjail rm -rf /usr/jail/origjail Ezjail really is very good too. You can convert your existing jails into the ezjail framework easily.
