The only thing that comes close to solaris' zones are FreeBSD's jails.

Handbook: Chapter 15 Jails

is FreeBsD's Jails power like zonning or it better

 

[SirDice]

Jails are quite good but Solaris' zones are better. You have more control over a zone (memory and cpu wise). Virtual networking is also a lot better.

There is some work being done to get that functionality into jails too but it's not complete yet.
