ezjail stop does not call /etc/rc.shutdown

["Frank Behrens" <frank AT jasmin.behrens DOT de>]

Hi,

I discovered, that my jail was not shutdown via /etc/rc.shutdown. IMHO it should be enabled 
by default, because it is the clean way also performed in base system.

The reason, why the rc.shutdown script was not called is the default configuration line:
export jail_myjail_exec="/bin/sh /etc/rc"

It is evaluated in base system's /etc/rc.d/jail:
        if [ -n "${_exec}" ]; then
                #   simple/backward-compatible execution
                _exec_start="${_exec}"
                _exec_stop=""
        else
                #   flexible execution
                if [ -z "${_exec_start}" ]; then
                        _exec_start="/bin/sh /etc/rc"
                        if [ -z "${_exec_stop}" ]; then
                                _exec_stop="/bin/sh /etc/rc.shutdown"
                        fi
                fi
        fi


Possible solutions for the problem:

1. Remove config line 'export jail_myjail_exec="/bin/sh /etc/rc"'
It that case defaults for start and shutdown are used.

2. Supply both config entries:
export jail_myjail_exec_start="/bin/sh /etc/rc"
export jail_myjail_exec_stop="/bin/sh /etc/rc.shutdown"


Used Configuration for my tests:
FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE  r203748
current ezjail ($Id: ezjail-admin,v 1.248 2010/02/08 05:05:04 erdgeist Exp $)
