I'm not running ezjail, and I don't think it's related.

For me the common denominator for the jails that exhibit this, is that
java (java/jdk15) is started from an rc.d script. This is anecdotal at
best.

It also doesn't happen immediately. Today I was playing with such a jail
and cron would happily restart (ie: '/etc/rc.d/cron restart') until I
left it alone for a few hours.

I have a dummy cron job (eg: /usr/bin/true), which runs every minute.
/var/log/cron shows that the job is still being run even when cron is
ignoring the TERM signal.

Cheers,

Stef
