I don't use the host system..
I keep a special pristine jail just for that purpose (to act as
a source for other jails). sometimes I also use null=mounts, and
sometimes if the jails are on one big partition, I hardlink some
stuff.. e.g binaries in /bin etc betweem teh jails.. saves memory and
disk.. Of course that is only when I basically trust the jail user
(me).
