NAME
       jid -- translates jail host names to jail ids and vice versa

SYNOPSIS
       jid hostname
       jid jail-id

DESCRIPTION
       jid  translates	jail host names	to jail	ids and	vice versa for running
       jails. When called with an integer number as it's argument, jid assumes
       that it's a jail	id and converts	it to a	host name.  When  called  with
       any other text, jid uses	it as a	host name and tries to resolve it to a
       jail id.

NOTES
       Jail  ids are an	integer	assigned when a	jail starts up.	Use jail(8) or
       jstart(8) with a	-i argument to print the jail id for a	running	 jail.
       jls(8) will also	print jail ids for all jails running on	the system.

       It  is  possible	to run two jails with the same host name.  jid however
       always only prints out one jail id for a	given jail host	name.

SEE ALSO
       jail(2),	jail(8), jls(8), jstart(8)
