Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1121

So I am trying to create a single persistent sandbox, which I will later join on. Is this possible at the moment? I read through the man page and it didn’t seem possible to me.

Something like:

firejail & does not work - it immediately quits. (I think it is because the bash process there receives EOF).

Is the solution then to use something like screen/tmux to keep it running?

Maybe you can add a feature for just creating a sandbox without creating any process inside it...

Couldn't you just use firejail sleep inf? You can use --profile to set the actual profile to load and --name to set the name.
