Thank you for clarifications. I am using jails like a virtual host, each having its own network stack and a wireless card, I am trying out to test 802.11s mesh code, and sometimes when I find that some scenario is not working I want to turn on debug information to see what is happening, it is hard to guess before hand =)
So is it easy to change so that I can give a jail this permission? I know I am not using it like it was intended, for me I create sometimes 64 jails with each network stack and a virtual wireless driver and test the code, so it is hard to know which node I want to debug beforehand. thank you, On Wed, Feb 16, 2011 at 10:13 PM, Rick van der Zwet <i...@rickvanderzwet.nl> wrote: > On 16 February 2011 17:34, Monthadar Al Jaberi <montha...@gmail.com> wrote: >> I have created a jail with "jail -c jid=1 vnet persist", then moved a >> wlan to it "ifconfig wlan0 vnet 1" but when I try to run: >> "jexec 1 wlandebug -i wlan0 state" I get : >> >> wlandebug: sysctl-set(net.wlan.0.debug): Operation not permitted >> net.wlan.0.debug: 0x22000 => >> >> I can run wlandebug before moving wlan to a jail, but why cant I do it >> inside the jail?
