I.e. installed software on host == installed software in jail? Or do you only r-o mount /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, etc. etc.? I've been considering such an approach, and have already started making it an option in my script, however wether or not this is wanted depends highly on how it's implemented and what use you have for the jails. Obviously in a jail that is acting as a true 'virtual server', this will be less than optimal. > > Future plans include finding a way to inject processes into jails > > In FreeBSD-Current no problem: jls / jexec > > If anyone interested, maybe someone could merge both shell scripts, > picking the good things and discarding the bugs ;) Good idea. Where can I find yours? I'm trying to write a manpage for mine, then I'll pack it up and throw it up on my website. I will probably put together a port aswell, but I have no idea how to proceed with that ;) /Eirik > > bye, > Andy > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
