Hello all...complete noob...first post.
Admins, if this is in the wrong subsection of the board, please feel free to relocate the post.
I'm configuring a FreeNAS 11 system with a FreeBSD jail hosting a separate web service for a commercial installer. We want to give them access only to the jail interface...no access to FreeNAS (which is easy enough to do with account protections).
...however, the client wishes to set a fixed IP address for the jail after delivery. Is there a safe, supportable, reboot-survivable method to set a fixed IP address for a jail from within the jail after it is created? Attempts to manually alter /etc/rc.conf via PHP script in the jail didn't seem to take properly...same for direct ifconfig commands.
To eliminate the "why would you want to do that" questions...this is a very specific client request, and we have very specific reasons to keep their busy fingers out of the FreeNAS configuration interface.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.
