All,
I'm trying to set up my first jail, and have been following the
handbook, Chapter 15, and a printout of 'man 8 jail' from the
freebsd.org web site.
I've followed the steps in the handbook through 15.4 (the 'make
distribution' step got an error, which I ignored after reading the
notes) up to the point where I entered the following in my
/etc/rc.conf.
jail_enable="YES"
jail_list="wotan"
jail_wotan_rootdir="/jails/wotan"
jail_wotan_hostname="wotan.mycompany.com"
jail_wotan_ip="192.168.24.123"
jail_wotan_devfs_enable="YES"
jail_wotan_devfs_ruleset="wotan_ruleset"
I then did /etc/rc.d/jail /start wotan
and that didn't work, giving the following lines:
Starting jails: cannot start jail "wotan":
jail: getpwnam: root: no such file or directory
I googled a bit, but only find a reference to this on the -current
list, regarding ZFS, which I'm not using.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Kurt
