   @dvl @forquare @mwl Wow I'm glad people like it. I'm sure there are countless other features that could be added to it but it does the bare minimum I need so I haven't touched it in a while. I think the update/upgrade commands could be improved a little bit though. Just be aware if you're running something important in the jail like a database that you should really stop that service before updating the jail.
   
   Perhaps I should think about how to cleanly shut down the jail to do the upgrade because it needs the jail "running" to jexec into it and do things. Maybe a custom temporary jail config that will let me launch the same jail but skip the services would be sufficient. But that can get tricky depending on how the networking in the jail is done too... 🤔
   
   I think once we have the OCI container style jails a lot of this trouble goes away

     I like it as well.

     I'd shortlist it for a new jails book, but me covering a jail management tool is a way to make that tool implode. :flan_despair:

     @mwl @dvl @forquare appreciated. I do hope we get an official-ish jail mgmt tool though. It would remove a lot of friction for users
