Bastille does its best to validate the submitted ip is valid. This has not been
thouroughly tested--I generally use the 10/8 range.
One point to be made about jails. If you run uname inside a jail you will not
get the information about the jail, but about the host system. If you want accurate
information about the jail please use freebsd-version inside the jail.
A couple of notes about the created jails. First, MOTD has been disabled inside
of the jails because it does not give information about the jail, but about the host
system. This caused confusion for some users, so we implemented the .hushlogin which
silences the MOTD at login.
Also, uname does not work from within a jail. Much like MOTD, it gives you the version
information about the host system instead of the jail. If you need to check the version
of freebsd running on the jail use the freebsd-version command to get accurate information.
Also, the MOTD also was reporting the host system instead of the jail. This
caused a lot of confusion for users, so the MOTD was disabled by the use of
the .hushlogin file. This prevents confusing contradictory information to be
shown to the user.
