====== Jails on FreeNAS ======

Part of my [[engineering:computer_science:homelab:homelab|HomeLab]] and [[engineering:computer_science:homelab:freenas:freenas|FreeNAS]].

Jails runs FreeBSD, so if you are familiar with the OS you shouldn't have much issues using it.

===== Create a Jail on FreeNAS =====

[TODO] Add Screenshots
