Hi Cyril,

For access loopback inside the jail, is necessary configure in host server
alias for loopback and start jail using loopback.
Remember loopback address is all 127/8 !


I just recently tried jails but I thought 127.0.0.1 would be mapped to
the jails ip-address, which eventually gets mapped to the ip specified
in the parameter or rc.conf. I could be wrong though although my
test-jail setup confirms this on 6.1-PRERELEASE:
test-jail# telnet localhost 22
Trying ::1...
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.2p1 FreeBSD-20050903

Kind regards,
