I've been using this in a production environment with excellent results!

Has an automated script that does a pretty good job guessing and installing library dependencies, software, and user accounts to any number of jails on your system.

Very stable; this is obviously quality work.

Crappy code, crappy documentation, doesn't work worth a crap on Solaris 8. Other than that it's great.

I had is working on Solaris 8 in just a little while. True, it took a little to get it just right, there were some minor problems on Sol8 and the Doc could be ironed out a bit, but it works quite well. I'd recommend chroot Jail.
