With 6.x, your best bet is to do a filesystem snapshot and back up the
snapshot.
Depending on your precise backup needs, however, this may be overkill. You
can just backup individual files/directories.
If you use ezjail be careful not to follow mount points or you'll end up
backing up the same stuff over and over for each separate jail you have.
