Qjail [ q = quick ] is a 4th generation wrapper for the basic chroot jail
system that includes security and performance enhancements. Plus a new level
of "user friendliness" enhancements dealing with deploying just a few jails or
large jail environments consisting of 100's of jails.
This version of qjail has been converted from using the legacy rc.d-method as
used in all previous versions of qjail, to using the jail(8) jail.conf-method
available in RELEASE-9.1. This upgrade provides the ability to enable the
following new options on a per-jail basis. exec.fib, allow.raw_sockets,
allow.quotas, allow.mount.nullfs, allow.mount.zfs, cpuset.id, securelevel,
vnet.interface, and vnet. The vnet option gives a jail its own network stack
using the experimental vimage software. This qjail version is not functional
for RELEASES older than RELEASE-9.1. The vnet option has only been tested on
i386 and amd64 equipment.
Qjail requires no knowledge of the jail command usage. It uses "nullfs" for
read-only system executables, sharing one copy of them with all the jails.
Uses "mdconfig" to create sparse image jails. Sparse image jails provide a
method to limit the total disk space a jail can consume, while only occupying
the physical disk space of the sum size of the files in the image jail.
Ability to assign ip address with their network device name,
so aliases are auto created on jail start and auto removed on jail stop.
Ability to create "ZONE"s of identical qjail systems, each with their own
group of jails.
Ability to designate a portion of the jail name as a group prefix so the
command being executed will apply to only those jail names matching that prefix.
