Found qjail to be much more function rich than ezjail. Would never use 
the manual method described in chapter 16 of the handbook. It becomes 
very cumbersome and hard to manage more than 3 jail.

Stay away from using vimage with production jails (vimage provides a 
network stack for each jail). Vimage is marked as experimental and use 
at your own risk. You have to compile it into your kernel to deploy it.
