Hi again,
I've changed my patch a bit since I'm figured it was a bad idea to
remove the "old way" (keeping the jail settings in /etc/rc.conf) since
/etc/jail.conf is rather new (from FreeBSD 9.1 and above).
Included here is my new patch for the jail chapter in the Handbook.
Best regards,
Jack-Benny
