However I still don't get the purpose of the security.jail.param.*. Are the to be set in loader.conf/sysctl.conf to influence default config of jails, or are the supposed to be per-jail ( from inside jail ) carriers of config? The PR seems to indicate it's not really clear.Also, man jail says: "The current set of available parameters can be retrieved via ``sysctl -d security.jail.param''. Any parameters not set will be given default values, often based on the current environment. The core parameters are: " and then lists some. For example jid. I take that to mean that the value of security.jail.param.jid from inside jail should return the jid of the jail. I just get 0. And security.jail.param.path is 1024, which is not at all the path of the jail... There seems to be quite a discrepancy between manpage and implementation.
The bit that the man page says is in fact the entire (user-visible) user for those sysctls: they're just there to show what parameters are available, and what types they are. Actually, they also show jail(8) the same thing, and that's how it knows what parameters exist. But the parameters don't actually have any useful values. Only their types, sizes and descriptions are valid. - Jamie _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-jail To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
