I forgotten to explain that using virtual hosts require some
administration too in order to avoid wasting disk space.  The jail(8)
manual page advices to make world with DESTDIR set.  I prefer using
null mounts as it doesn't require additional disk space and an upgrade
of the host will automagically upgrade virtual hosts.  You will
nevertheless have to make distribution and distrib-dirs.  Here are the
directories I advice you to share :
    /bin /sbin /lib /libexec
    /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/lib /usr/libexec /usr/libdata /usr/share
    /usr/doc /usr/compat /usr/ports

Sharing ports may be more difficult as it may require sharing the
port database, but I think it's still possible.


Good idea! I will take a try!

Jas
