https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=287615 --- Comment #4 from Jim Long <freebsd-bugzilla@umpquanet.com> --- Thanks for commenting, Jan. Many times, jail config values don't require quoting, such as: linux.osname=FreeBSD That's pretty easy to deal with, in terms of parsing that to an eval-able expression. But quoting becomes desirable (and indeed, is *already* partially implemented in jail.c) when string values contain meta-characters which could otherwise be interpreted as delimiters or operators but instead are intended to be just part of the data. Spaces are one example, but certainly not the only one: path="/jail/path to jail" or exec.start="/bin/sh /etc/rc" or ip4.addr="private|192.168.1.9/24" or linux.osname="Rocky Linux 9.6 (Blue Onyx)" -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
