First compile the complete system. (kernel and world)
Then install ezjail form the ports

Then edit ezjail.conf in /usr/local/etc
enable ezjail in /etc/rc.conf

Then creating the base system:
ezjail-admin update -i
ezjail-admin update -P

after this you can create a jail using:

ezjail-admin create hostname.domain.net ip_address_of_jail

you can logon to your jail using:
ezjail-admin console hostname.domain.net

It's quite easy
