NAME¶
jailer - jailer is a script for creating jails from Debian packages
SYNOPSIS¶
jailer <jailer.conf> <jail identifier>
DESCRIPTION¶
jailer is a script for creating chrooted environments for Debian
packages.
Jailer deals only with Debian packages, which should be installed to your Debian
system.
WARNING¶
Do not configure your daemon inside your jail, because the
updatejail
script will wipe out all the data inside the jail. If you would like to change
any settings inside the jail, make the changes in the original location and
then run
updatejail . This makes it possible to place a jail even to a
ramdisk.
Options¶
- <jailer.conf>
- The configuration file which contains the settings of the new chrooted
environment. For further information see man 5 jailer.conf
- <jail identifier>
- identifier which determines which jail will be created. This identifier
has to be defiend in jailer.conf
