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
