ezjail

Im new to freebsd and jails, please be patient. according to the freebsd documentation, one should create a cloned loopback for a jail instance. I can't get behind the purpose of creating multiple loopback interfaces. can someone explain me this? Should I create a new lo interface for each...

On my system, pkg within jails seems to complain about the version numbers. I have checked the older posts (mostly from late last year) in this category, but I don't believe they solve my problem. Symptoms: Issuing a pkg update within a jail gave the apparently common error But, doing uname...

FreeBSD-12.0p7 We created a jail using ezjail-admin and configured it for bind 911 using ipv4 [192.168.209.133] (DNS02). Everything works including rndc. We then shut down the jail and archived it using ezjail-admin. We transferred the archived jail to another server and used ezjail-admin...

I'm using ezjail and IPFW, at least thus far. So far I have 10.13.13.0/8 subnet. My gateway is .1, my host server is .2, and my first jail is at .3 I noticed that from within my jail at .3 I can knock on the outside if .2. I added this rule to my host but it makes no difference: add 10032...

Hello, Im getting into jails I want to move away some KVM vms, and transform it into jails. My goal is to optimize (even more with jails) all resources, specially storage. Currently Im running 2 vms with FreeBSD, vm1 has PHP7.1 and MariaDB and vm2 has PHP5.6 with MySQL. (vm1 should have more...

Hi folks. I'd appreciate a help to discover what's wrong with sysutils/ezail. The service is started but never return the therminal, as you see below. Though, the jail is up and running, but never available through ezjail-admin . [@machine jails #] service ezjail onestart...

Hi This is my first post, I hope I can explaing my self in english, my natural language is spanish, and I speak/write very bad in spanish too :D I have multiple servers with multiple Jails, and is hard to keep all syncronized I have one machine with 1 jail as "model", I have it with all the...

Hello everyone, I hope all of you are fine. I decided to change my strategy using ezjail. Before: * Install nginx, php-fpm, in one jail and also created all users in this jail * Install mysql in another jail * In main host used pf to forwarding port to and nginx,mysql, etc. Now: * In main...

Hi, I'm new to FreeBSD and jails... and I have difficulties with setting up networking inside a jail. The jail management utility I use is ezjail. I tried different utilities (iocage, qjail, cbsd etc.) but without success. My host system: FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p10 #0: Tue May 8 05:21:56 UTC...

After almost a couple years away, I'd like to know about jails management systems, for a new server. In the past I've used ezjail, then qjail. Now, in 2018, are all these tools up-to-date with current? ezjail is mentioned in the manual, so I guess it should be... iocage seems to require Python...

Hey Guys. Following problem: Inside a jail I can ping my nameserver, i can ping someones ip adress but I cant ping a domain name. I cant install pkg or anything else inside a jail, because its not working. I set up my jails with ezjail. I created a fresh jail but its not working. I have set my...

Good day - I've come across a weird problem with installing ports in a new jail. Using FreeBSD 11.1 with ezjail, updated with the latest patches. You may suggest to install the package, but I want to change something in the defaults (MySQL support). Host System # uname -a FreeBSD...

In the handbook section Managing Jails with ezjail, it is demonstrated how to setup a jail. From 14.6.1. Installing ezjail: (just below the reddish subsection), it says: Installing ezjail consists of adding a loopback interface for use in jails, installing the port or package, and enabling the...

Hi, first of all I want to thanks for this community, this forum have rich content. Is possible to send a command from the main host to jail host? Like this: ezjail-admin console WEBSERVER | nginx -s reload I want to restart a service and check status, so I think I need to do this via...

Hi, since various applications want to do that, often fail/coredump not being able to I wonder whether there is a way to allow mlock in jail. I am getting a permission denied there. I am using FreeBSD 10.3 on the target machine and ezjail.

Not sure this is the right part of the forums. Move it if necessary. I have my FreeBSD 11 server running jails (ezjail) and I just moved it to a new VLAN. Most everything inbound works. I have for example rancid setup in one of the jails. Works great. But since I moved it to a new VLAN...

Is this possible? I have seen older threads stating this is not possible. But I think it might have to do with older versions... do I need to explicitly disable nfs and rpc on the host?

Hello, Recently I updated my server FreeBSD server to 10.3 release. I have a few jails at that server and one of them with DNS. I used to work with Bind and expected to install a fresh one to the jail, in case that Bind isn't part of the base system since 10.0 release. When I check my jail I...

Hello, I'm trying to update the base system of the jails on my host. I created the jails using EZJail. On the host or on the jails, I think the correct way to check if my base system is up to date is to call # freebsd-update fetch This way I get a list of available updates. If the list is...

Hi. I have upgraded host from 10.1 to 10.3. After that i coudn't start ezjail. I edited fstab.jail_name to /usr/jails/basejail /usr/jails/jail_name/basejail nullfs ro 0 0 After that it started. I stoped it. Updated jail with ezjail-admin update -U -s 10.1-RELEASE mergemaster -U -D...
