Well, what you write into your rc.conf is only relevant to the
/etc/rc.d/jail script. If you're not using the script, you don't need
these variables.

You might man to look up the jail.conf(5) man page.

Looks like you need to create the jail first. Use the -c parameter to jail.

However I suggest to configure your jails with either a tool like ezjail
or at least start the jails with the /etc/rc.d/jail script.
