Default Simple jail question
I don't want my jails to start automatically on boot, but still be able to start them manually. How can I achieve that?

Remove the following line from /etc/rc.conf (however keep the rest of jail config lines)
Code:
jail_enable="YES"
To start manually type
Code:
/etc/rc.d/jail forcestart
/etc/rc.d/jail forcestart jailname
/etc/rc.d/jail forcerestart jailname
/etc/rc.d/jail forcerestop jailname

Thanks! I knew I had to set jail_enable="NO", but I was not familiar with the 'force' commands.

Actually
Code:
jail_enable="YES"
jail_list=""
is more obvious solution
