I do not think you can do it this way

(Well, if you would reprogram and use jail(2) or jail_attach(2) in the code
instead of chroot(2)?.. besides, it would be one way of writing code for
BSD only, a bit of a revenge for the Linuxisms find elsewhere;-)

Of course you can run both in the same jail and do the "usual" chroot.

Or you have them in separate jails and use TCP/IP.

Peter
