If you're reading this mailing list attentively, you surely already noticed those lines in last bugmaster mail :

o [2006/06/09] conf/98758 rc [patch] Templatize 'jail_fstab' in /etc/r o [2006/06/12] conf/98846 rc [patch] Templatize 'jail_rootdir' in /etc

While I share Sergey's idea of templating things where possible, I don't like having %%FOO%% everywhere.

I've written a patch which seems to address both of these "issues".

Basically, it's used like this :

jail_rootdir="\${_name}" jail_rootdir="\${_hostname}" jail_rootdir="\${_ip}"

jail_mount_list="ports" or jail_<jname>_mount_list="ports"

jail_mount_ports_args="-t nullfs /usr/ports \${_rootdir}/usr/ports"

Obviously I preferred my way to do those things but I'd like to get some review before it makes it to the tree.
