System: FreeBSD jailhost.localdomain 8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #1 r221323: Tue Sep 13 13:38:57 BST 2011 toor@jailhost.localdomain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/JAILHOST amd64
>Description:
/etc/rc.d/jail attempts to create a symlink inside of a jail's devfs from ../var/log/run to /dev/log, as various applications expect
syslogd's socket to be /dev/log. r221323 introduced a change that applies devfs.rules onto any directories or symlinks created
inside of a devfs mount (eg, /dev) - this means that the /dev/log symlink gets hidden and said applications lose their ability to
log (an example is security/php-suhosin port).
>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade to stable/8 >= r221323, start a jail and check for existence of $jailroot/dev/log symlink
>Fix:
Expose the log symlink inside of jails by adding the path to the jail ruleset in /etc/defaults/devfs.rules
