I get one dynamic ip address from my ISP. This is what I specify on the
jail for public network access. When the ip address changes on me I have to
manually change the ip address associated with the jail.

Is there some method I can code so jail will all ways have public network
access?

The jails are on the host with LAN behind it and with ipf firewall which allows out anything coming from LAN private ip address. I was not able to get this to work until I discovered the jail needed a copy of the hosts /etc/resolv.conf. Now it works without any special tweaks, and the dymanic ip address changing causes no problems.
