Configuring jails

[BulkMailForRudy]

Is IPv4 working?

  ping 8.8.8.8

Is DNS working?

  host fb.com

Is IPv6 working?

  ping6 fb.com

If you can pass those test, you have networking ready.

Next, can you ping the host for packages?

ping pkg.FreeBSD.org

Maybe pkg is tryign IPv6, try this:
  ping6 pkg.FreeBSD.org


Based on your error (resolver), your DNS is hosed.
