Hi,

I just installed jail-1.9-r1 and noticed it has following
permissions:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 543 Jul 28 17:09 /etc/jail.conf

Is it necessary to have exec-permission on this file?
If I remember correctly, there should be only config
files in /etc, and afaik they do not need it...

I can't answer your question, however I can suggest changing it to non-exec 
and see how behaves after.

Yes. And if there's no change, I'd suggest to file a bug, so that this
gets changed.
