 FreeBSD jail - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FreeBSD jail mechanism is more than that: each process is attached a specific kernel structure whose purpose is to limit its interaction with processes running in other jails and restrict the things they can do (for instance a jail is bound to only one IP address and cannot access raw, divert or routing sockets).
And since the jail is limited to a narrow scope, the effects of a misconfiguration or mistake (even if done by the superuser) does not jeopardize the rest of the system's integrity.
With jails it is possible to install different daemons in different jails and delegate their administration to other people by giving them access to the jailed superuser account.

 Creating a FreeBSD Jail - Section6wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Jails are a great way to secure your processes to a virtual system.
This is unfortunate because jails tend to monopolize address space after making quite a few of them and address space is what IPv6 is all about.
Instead of using jail (which makes its own IP address and everything) we can use chroot instead which is similar since all we're using is a simple shell and then we'll be done with it.

 DragonFly On-Line Manual Pages : jail (8)
Because jail is implemented using IP aliases, one of the first things to do is to disable IP services on the host system that lis- ten on all local IP addresses for a service.
In the current jail imple- mentation, System V primitives share a single namespace across the host and jail environments, meaning that processes within a jail would be able to communicate with (and potentially interfere with) processes outside of the jail, and in other jails.
Jail currently lacks strong management functionality, such as the ability to deliver signals to all processes in a jail, and to allow access to specific jail information via ps(1) as opposed to procfs(5).
