When trying to pass a my hostname (foo.com) as jailname like that, jail(8) will complain jail: jail "foo" not found as it does not allow periods in the jailname. This seems like an unfortunate limitation, as I tend to name my jails after the fqdn they are being started as. FYI, the name=myjail form did not work, because rc.d/jail uses the path hostname [ip[,...]] command ... synopsis of the jail command, which fails, if it sees name=value params. So I guess, I am out of luck here, because users used to think of their jails as what they saw in the hostname field on jls. If I am writing tools that use jail_getid to map the jailname to the jid, it will never match that hostname and I also can not copy the hostname to the jailname. Is there a reason for '.' being the only excluded character in the jailname? erdgeist _______________________________________________ freebsd-jail@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-jail To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-jail-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
