How to get a hostname for a jail

[balanga]

I use dnsmasq as a dhcp server and am using IOCAGE to manage jails, but have no idea how IP address are allocated or ir they can be pre-configured in some way, but would like to know whether there is any way to assign a hostname to a jail.

Can anyone tell me?

Yes, you need to specify it when you start the jail:

jail -c host.hostname=my-jail exec.start=lovelyapp
