jid and jname are numberic by default why? Can we change it ?

[Philip M. Gollucci]

All,

$ jls -nq | tail -1 | xargs -n1 | egrep '^(name|jid)='| xargs
jid=17 name=17

$ jls
   JID  IP Address      Hostname                      Path
     3  192.168.2.38    sid.dca1.rws                  /sid
    17  192.168.2.41    jubilee.dca1.rws              /jubilee

# jubilee/chef
jail_jubilee_hostname="jubilee.dca1.rws"
jail_jubilee_ip="192.168.2.41"
jail_jubilee_ip_multi0="192.168.2.42"
jail_jubilee_interface="bge1"
jail_jubilee_rootdir="/jubilee"
jail_jubilee_devfs_enable="YES"

From jexec(8):

DESCRIPTION
     The jexec utility executes command inside the jail identified by
its jid or name.

This works, but kind of defeats the point --
$ sudo jexec `jls |grep sid |awk '{print $1}'` /bin/bash
