Victor Balada Diaz pravi:
INADDR_ANY and in6addr_any binds to all the IPs in the jail.
this is for servers, right?
INADDR_LOOPBACK and in6addr_loopback tries to bind to a
loopback address, if the jail doesn't have any it tries to
bind to any other address.
so what does this mean for example for outgoing web or dns requests? I did play with one of those older mijail patches 
on freebsd and the problem was that applications had to specifically bind to some IP in order to succesfully send 
outgoing traffic.
