The command for manually start and stop jail (the ones to use in cron tasks) are
/etc/rc.d/jail start
/etc/rc.d/jail stop

With 8.2 beta3 it was working fine, with 8.2p1 it never worked correctly. As I use these task only on sunday (before and after scrubbing) I had only 2 attemps. The problem that I found is that Jail stops correctly but when it starts the plugins does not seems to start automatically

/etc/rc.d/jail stop

Actually, you should use:

/etc/rc.d/jail onestart
/etc/rc.d/jail onestop
