This qjail version only supports RELEASE-11.0 and newer.
Qjail [ q = quick ] is a 4th generation wrapper for the basic chroot jail
system that includes security and performance enhancements. Plus a new level
of "user friendliness" enhancements dealing with deploying just a few jails or
large scale jail environments consisting of 100's of jails.
Qjail uses the jail(8) jail.conf method. This provides the ability to enable
the following options on a per-jail basis. exec.fib, securelevel, allow.sysvipc,
devfs_rulesets, allow.raw_sockets, allow.quotas, allow.mount.nullfs,
allow.mount.tmpfs, allow.mount.zfs, vnet.interface, and vnet. The vnet option
gives a jail its own network stack using the experimental vimage kernel module.
The vnet option has only been tested on i386 and amd64 equipment.
Qjail requires no knowledge of the jail command usage. It uses "nullfs" for
read-only system executables, sharing one copy of them with all the jails.
Uses "mdconfig" to create sparse image jails. Sparse image jails provide a
method to limit the total disk space a jail can consume, while only occupying
the physical disk space of the sum size of the files in the image jail.
Ability to assign ip address with their network device name,
so aliases are auto created on jail start and auto removed on jail stop.
Ability to create "ZONE"s of identical qjail systems, each with their own
group of jails.
Ability to designate a portion of the jail name as a group prefix so the
command being executed will apply to only those jail names matching that prefix.
Qjail has been incorporated into the Finch open source project,
see http://dreamcat4.github.io/finch/ for details.
Use the qjail utility to deploy small or large numbers of jails quickly.
First issue "rehash" command to enable the qjail command (if using csh).
Then issue
"man qjail-intro" To read the qjail introduction.
"man qjail" For qjail usage details.
"man qjail-howto" For example of driving public traffic to non-vnet jails.
"man qjail-vnet-howto" For example of creating vnet jails.
"man qjail-ipv6-testing" For example of testing jails with ipv6 addresses.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
