ezjail

I am not a sysadmin. I have used Linux for a long time and have run multiple servers but I am new to BSD. I have little experience of running containers or VM hosts. I have been running one VM host server (using Proxmox) and some desktop VMs (using Virtmanager) and containerising some desktop...

Hi, Does anyone know, How I can allocate my vmx interface into jail with vnet in iocage? I can do it in ezjail with this variable: export jail_test_vnet_interface="vmx1" I think it may not support this feature without a bridge.

Hi all, I'm trying to install emby-server into an ezjail-created jail. I need to set the "allow.mlock" jail configuration value to "1" but am being thwarted at every attempt. Host runs FreeBSD 13.1. I can't seem to find the right value to put in /usr/local/etc/ezjail/jailname.conf, and I the...

Ezjail is running smoothly on the host. A running jail I test ran an update attempt and I am receiving Read-only file system error. Ezjail Jail (Shows 12.1): Read-only file system error when issuing: freebsd-update fetch install With this screen: If anyone has any idea of how to...

Hi all, First of all, apologies if this was covered elsewhere, or is blatantly obvious. I am very new to FreeBSD, have been trying to figure this out for the better part of a day, and don't really have anywhere else useful to post something that might be helpful for other people trying to set...

Because I made a (huge) mistake in a config file I ran into a problem that took me long to solve because I missed out on obvious error messages when my jails started. I guess with the way jails work, the behavior that I encountered is just how it is, not a bug. But I do want to describe it...

So my initial problem was solved before I made this post (don't use - in $name) but I'm here to ask your help in aiding me to find the changes and showing me, where to look/read. I have multiple flavours one of them called basic-dns On first run /etc/rc.d/ezjail_flavour_basic-dns is called...

Hey Geniuses, I am wondering if anyone knows if ezjail-admin's archive feature that tar.gz's /usr/jails/[ezjailname] does more than just tar.gz it? I am having difficulties archiving and restoring without pax errors (part 2, etc) which are beyond 2GB (I don't have an ezjail-admin archive in...

I have an ezjail-admin question for experienced system administrators. Is there an archive limit? I was able to archive and restore from FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE to a FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE and it worked. The one archive of a jail that exceeds 4GB; ZFS are my filesystem(s). 14GB or so, give or take...

I am running a few jails via ezjail. Nginx and pf on the main host take care of routing incoming requests to the appropriate jail. Each jail needs to run different instances of the same service - Apache and MySQL. Please help me get the set up right for doing this^^. As far as I understand...

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...
