All I am doing is pointing out the facts here. I am reading the thread. And I have been following the discussion for a long time. I have been served the jail.conf file format and offered my help improving the jail(8) tool to allow for manipulation of the jail.conf, because ezjail as a shell tool can not parse the format and keeping a shadow config with potentially conflicting information is not a stable way to maintain ones config A short summary is here: https://elektropost.org/ezjail/msg00149.html I also heard rumors that the jail.conf format is an intermediate format only, and/or there's gonna be a library to parse and manipulate all kind of structured config in FreeBSD. So I'd be very interested in keeping up with the base system's development, but regarding jail configs it looks like I'm stuck with the "use your vi to configure your jails" approach for 3 years now. Is there anyone feeling responsible for the jail(8) tool at the moment willing to accept patches and discuss development? erdgeist
