Alternatively, I'm still developing and using my JailAdmin scripts
(available at http://subwiki.honeypot.net/cgi-bin/view/Freebsd/JailAdmin) .
They provide functionality similar to /etc/rc.jail, but additionally provide
the ability to mount filesystems before starting a jail and unmount them
after stopping it, to manage an arbitrary number of named jails, and to get
some statistics from running jails via SNMP.

It's been a little while since the last update, but it still works correctly
on -CURRENT systems.  I'm anticipating a few changes in the near future,
possibly including packing the system as a port.
