Actually, if I recall correctly, the issue was one of a lack of inodes, which setting message_size_limit to 0 doesn't help ... I even played with increasing the # of inodes, and the lose of space that resulted, I didn't find, warranted using it ...

Re: Jail Replication
Hello, The easiest way is to set the jail up as a file using vnconfig. Then you just copy the file like any file, transfer it by FTP etc. Therefore by coping the original jail to a new file it has the default passwords which can then be changed as needed.
