Dear FreeBSD staff,

I am running a multi-jail server and want to
get rid of having a local copy of /usr/ports
in every jail. I thought about mounting it
read-only to all jails and modify make.conf
appropriately.
mount_null(fs) would be the solution, if I
completely ignored the bunch of capital
letters at the end of its man page.
Since this is not a test system and wasting
inodes is no longer an option for having
more jails, I'd appreciate if you could
suggest another solution (hopefully not one
involving nfs or repartitioning the hard
drive).

Regards

  Dirk
