This release adds the ability to specify custom paths for jails. The default configuration files have been slightly adjusted for jails. The jailctl man page has been updated, and a jails.conf man page added.
A typo snuck in that made jailctl fail under certain circumstances. Some functions only worked on 5.x (-eq instead of -ge). Very long jail names would cause various malfunctions. /usr/share/examples was incorrectly deleted from jails when creating or upgrading them.
The concept of "hooks" was added at various
points. A check is made for mounted filesystems
prior to jail deletion. Different dellist.txt
files are used for FreeBSD 4.x and FreeBSD
versions 5 or later. The ability to upgrade jails
while running was added. A jail matching problem,
some problems with shutting down jails, and the
rc.shutdown execution (FreeBSD >=5 only) were
fixed.
Showstopper bugs in 0.6 prevented jailctl from working correctly on FreeBSD 6.x. The BATCH flag works properly. This release should also work better from cron jobs.
This release adds installworld flags to the configuration file. There is a new batch mode. If enabled, it uses the default password. It otherwise asks when creating new jails. The ability to force starting and deleting of jails. DevFS support on FreeBSD 5.x and above, and FreeBSD 6.x compatibility. Improved FreeBSD 4.x functionality.
