This somehow reminds me of PR ports/22316 ("Synopsis: [PATCH]
samba port in a jail(2) environment") with details available at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=22316

Do we need a (possibly general) mechanism of running networked
port apps in jails?  I almost feel so.  That's when I tried to
discuss this topic in the above PR (samba is just one example I
ran across and had a clean(?) solution for).  But there hasn't
been response so far.  And I also failed contributing this
cleanup back into the Samba project, there too was nothing but
silence ...
