Hi Gabor, I figured as much. A tip: install your "base" tools first, things like freebsd-update, portupgrade, webmin, etc. configure those and then tar the /path/to/jail directory. That will give you a nice clean system to fall back on and replicate whenever you need a new jail, and save you a lot of time.

Hello, thanks. Actually, I just did a make installworld DESTDIR=/path/to/jail, I didn't follow the steps in jail(8) exactly and that was the problem. I should have done a make distribution DESTDIR=/path/to/jail from /usr/src/etc. Thanks, Gabor Ruben Bloemgarten wrote: >Hi Gabor, > >Did you install the jail following the instructions of the man page ?
