JEXEC(8) BSD System Manager's Manual JEXEC(8)
NAME
jexec -- execute a command inside an existing jail
SYNOPSIS
jexec [-u username | -U username] jail command ...
DESCRIPTION
The jexec utility executes command inside the jail identified by its jid or name.
The following options are available:
-u username
The user name from host environment as whom the command should run.
-U username
The user name from jailed environment as whom the command should run.
SEE ALSO
jail_attach(2), jail(8), jls(8)
HISTORY
The jexec utility was added in FreeBSD 5.1.
BUGS
If the jail is not identified by jid there is a possible race in between the lookup of the jail and executing the command inside the jail.
Giving a jid has a similar race as another process can stop the jail and start another one after the user looked up the jid.
