Here's one unionfs/jail gotcha that's bitten me a couple of times. If you actually *use* (or, have used) the ports directory to build and install stuff onto the "host" machine, the ports infrastructure in the jail gets kind of confused. It seems to be checking for the files in the dependencies, doesn't find them, goes to make them, and then [depending on what state the relevant port directory is in], things get "odd". I've started just using a virgin ports tree as the underpinnings for my unionfs'ed jails. Is there any chance that you've installed mysql-server on the host? g. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
