just to clarify that for me: you did setup this layout or you
tried to setup this? as i read it, i understand that you did!

i tried exactly the same but currently jails are bound to the specific
ip-address assigned with them so i wonder, how the webserver on a real
ip-address can communicate with the database bound to the loopback ip?
if you could kindly tell, how you solved this issue (we're using 6.1).
