https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233310 Christian Sturm <reezer@reezer.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |reezer@reezer.org --- Comment #2 from Christian Sturm <reezer@reezer.org> --- I don't think it really is the same thing, as it seems that one is required to use rc.conf. While that might be a workaround allowing something like include /etc/jail.d/*.conf or even: include /usr/local/etc/jail.d/*.conf would allow one to simply use a file system overlay or installing a jail for example via a package without having to modify rc scripts. In that regard it could behave similar to newsyslog.conf.d which recently got a similar features allowing the same thing. This might even benefit the ports system. So while using rc.conf is a workaround /etc/rc.d/jail defaults to just loading /etc/jail.conf and it would be nice for software that is able to handle jail.conf(5) syntax to create (or parse) such jail configuration files and not having to understand how /etc/rc.d precisely parses options in the rc.conf. It would be really helpful for third party software and automation to have a setup similar to newsyslog.conf.d, where includes are supported (the syntax above is just an example, maybe ) and per default - if enabled - looks in both /etc/ and /usr/local/etc. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
