I know this is something of a frequent question, but jail seems to be evolving and many a google hit is no longer quite as relevant as I'd hoped. I'm leaning towards using 5.3 on a new project, so I'm mainly interested in any faqs/howtos beyond the manpage that address changes in jail from 4.x->5.x. What are some of the improvements in 5.3? Anyone have a particular doc on jail that's your favorite? Any favorite tools for managing jails? I'm looking to use this to isolate a few shell users from the rest of the system, it's not a huge web-hosting type project which seems to be the typical use of jail. Thanks, Charles -- Charles Sprickman spork@inch.com
Hello Charles, I think this is what you searching for: http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2003/09/04/jails.html Maybe it doesn't suid your needs because you need more ip-adresses for this. Personally I'm using: http://www-unix.oit.umass.edu/~coreya/OpenBSD/chroot_ssh/ Let me know if something is unclear..

I'd also like to see some discussion on keeping the jail environment as small as needed, and some info on maintenance of the jail environment.
