if you really wonder, take a look at i.e. FreeNAS as other projects which uses BSD jails as containers for virtual multi host environments (i.e. mailservers, LAMP stuff, Database servers, Samba stuff and proprietary / binary software etc) which all have their own IPs as root as user contexts in fs as userspace and security isolation (system as net / firewalling etc) is a major reason. This is one of the most used scenarios today. many greetings, niels. — Niels Dettenbach https://www.syndicat.com https://www.syndicat.com/pub_key.asc
