Hi Peter, Thanks a lot! Will read up on that. (luckily I do speak german/swiss-german). From discussions on ##FreeBSD IRC I learned that it is not recommended to use lo0 for jails!
On FreeBSD-6.3 I succesfully used lo0/127.0.0.2 for my mysql jail that needed to be addressed only locally, but ONLY LOCALLY, no other access. It may be possible to add a line similar to 00100 divert 8668 ip from any to any in via xl0 to my ipfw/NAT config, but being warned, I'm not going down that path. Since I moved my portbuild jail to bridge0/172.17.2.17 it works as expected, without device mem! And to boot I made errors when creating my aliases (ifconfig bridge0 inet 172.17.2.17 netmask *172.17.2.255* in stead of 255.255.255.0) I will protect the jails that only need to be connected to from local by adding rules to my ipfw setup Now Iet's hope that my failures/problems serve as reference for future users of (ez)jail!
