I think most of us would define a minimal jail as having only those packages, files and directories necessary to: * start and show a jail as running: `service jail start $jail && jls', * provide access via the posix shell: `jexec $jail /bin/sh`, * add non-minimal packages: [mount $jailroot/usr/ports] and `pkg [add|install] $pkgname` As this leaves out critical packages like cron and syslogd these should probably be made dependencies of subsequent `pkg install`s. Adding those packages, dirs and files would convert a "minimal jail" to a "basic jail" with the goal being to most simply allow users to choose either at install-time. Rogerhelp
