Is there a way to get a bunch of jails (I'm using ezjail) to share the same hosts file, preferably one stored somewhere on the host OS? I tried putting a symlink in the "flavour" template but when a jail is created with that the symlink within the jail pointed to itself and gave me some sort of recursive error when I tried to "cat" it. I'd like to be able to update the file when I add a new jail, and have the others able to connect to it by whatever stupid name I give it, without editing all those different hosts files. But I suspect the whole point of jails being kept separate from the host filesystem might be in my way. Any advice is welcome! Thanks! -- Stephen
