If you had read the qjail info you would have found that the current version only supports 9.1 and newer as its now converted to use jail.conf file. There is big differences between 8.4, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2 and 10.0 as the jail function is getting a lot of maintenance that is changing how it works. You will get the best results if your using 9.2 for both your host and jail.
