Hi freebsd gurus,
I'm playing with jail setup and wanted to provide a virtual server to my
external remote users to login by ssh and run a couple of applications.
Do I need to install the application using the ports in the jail itself or
can I just install the application in the host environment? Is there any
methods to enable sharing of the application across the jail and host?
Example, if I want to let jail to run pure-ftpd, do I need to install
pure-ftpd in each of the jail that I will be creating?
You can share directories b/n the host and the jails using nullfs. I do
that to share /usr/ports.
If you're just starting out look into the ezjail package. It makes life a
*lot* simpler if you're going to be managing several jails. It uses this
trick to create a master jail such that future jails only take up about
10mb (base install anyway).
Good stuff.
