Jail configuration files are located in /etc/sysconfig/jail and must be the same name (uppercase) as the name of the package, i.e. /etc/sysconfig/jail/POSTFIX
Chroot jails are initialized or shut down with the helper script: /etc/init.d/jail . This script takes 2 parameters:
<action> This is either start or stop.
<config> This is the filename of the jail definition file, without the pathname, i.e.: POSTFIX
To create the postfix jail you would issue the command: /etc/init.d/jail start POSTFIX
FIX ME
Take a look at the sample config file and on what you find on your Devil-Linux box in the directory /etc/sysconfig.jail.
Devil-Linux uses the program compartment (originally created by SuSE's Marc Heuse, but he doesn't maintain it anymore) to start daemons in a chroot jail. The used compartment has some more features then the standard v1.2, so check what man compartment or compartment --help on your Devil Linux Box has to tell you.
A very nice feature of compartment is that you can set Linux Capabilities. I can't explain here what this is, so go ahead do a man capset and take a look at linux-2.4.20/include/linux/capability.h (not on Devil-Linux !) or ask Google. ;-)
