http://serverfault.com – I posted on the freebsd forums. I've been trying all night and I've made some progress but still I can't connect to the internet from my freebsd jail. Please just give me a hint here. I get the following inside the jail if I do nslookup www.google.com : ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached So, I can't seem to install stuff inside the jail. OR, is there any way I can install perl and starman on my host system and copy it into the jail?? In the end I just need this stuff installed and then I want my jail off the internet. I tried various things, from the plain (1) jail co (HowTos)

Stories similar to nslookup fails inside freebsd jail

So I'm mostly a linux newbie itself. Let alone freebsd, so please bear with me. I just need some very basic clues to get this to work.

I have some difficulties to start 2 jails on the same host. When the first jail is running, i can access this jail by ssh and http (this jail running nginx). But when i start the second jails, i lost first jail connection and i can't join the jail from ext.

[other] SSH Cjhroot Jail 28 weeks 3 days ago

Hello,

Migrate FreeBSD jail 32 weeks 2 days ago

I need to create a freebsd jail for web hosting, that will be frequently migrated between hosts.

How feasible is it? Can I use domains instead of IPs? can I use wildcard IPs?

I need this to benchmark different hw/sw configuration against a known resource hogger.

I have created a chroot jail, but now I want to be able to create a link within the jail which links outside of the jail. Is this possible?

I installed jailkit on my CentOS 5.8 server, and configured it according to the online guides that I found.

Looking for an checklist for an "small company freebsd/jail server".

Having pretty common starting point:

FreeBSD jail (remote/headless) for the company:

public web, email, ftp server, and private (maybe in the future partially public) wiki (foswiki)

4 physical persons, (6 email addresses) + one admin - others will never use ssh) have already done usual hardening on the host side (like pf, ss

I am using FreeBSD with ZFS to run several jails. For jail management I'm using ezjail, and I have a template jail which I use for provisioning.

I want to share passwd, groups, and authentication information across all jails and the host. For the jails it can be read-only.

Is there some mechanism which can share the host passwd, groups, etc. without any complex system such as LDAP/NIS/etc.?
