Yep! That is working as well. And, now it will stop jails in the reverse =
order.

*BUT*, that doesn't work with "jail -rc '*'", reproducibly =E2=80=A6=20

	| testing> jail -rc '*'
	| ifconfig: : bad value
	| jail: dns: /sbin/ifconfig em0 inet  netmask 255.255.255.255 @ =
alias: failed

=E2=80=A6 and leaving me with all stopped but not started a single jail =
:-(

"service jail restart" works much better, never failing.

Thanks and with kind regards,
Michael
