Hi, as my subject, machine resets the etc folder after reboot, so the changes that I made to httpd.conf,smb.conf is changed back to original, and the changes become useless, how would i go about forcing the changes to apply after system reboots?

Thanks,

I don't know what the distro means, but this is the code:



# cat /etc/smb.conf
#======================= Global Settings =====================================
[global]
server string = nas
smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
security = SHARE
workgroup = WORKGROUP
encrypt passwords = true
short preserve case = yes
preserve case = yes
guest account = ftp
guest ok = yes
force user = root
force group = root
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=16384 SO_SNDBUF=16384
character set = utf8
client code page = 950
#============================ Share Definitions ==============================

[main]
    comment = main
    path = /usb/sda1
    writeable = yes

 

original charset is ISo----something and 850, im trying to change it to unicode and t chinese.

Thanks,

Ted

WTF? I asked for the output of....

 

cat /etc/fstab

 

Nothing to do with your Samba config.

 

As for what 'distro' means. Its what GNU/Linux 'type' youi are using. eg, Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS etc etc.

 

I saw in another of your threads your using CentOS so, I assume this problem relates to the same machine? Your distro is CentOS then.


# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/ram0       /               ext2    defaults        0       0
none            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
none            /dev/pts        devpts  defaults        0       0


# system initialisation
::sysinit:/usr/share/snake/rc.sysinit

# setup serial console
ttyS0::askfirst:/bin/sh

# stuff to do before rebooting
::ctrlaltdel:/usr/share/snake/rc.reboot 
::shutdown:/usr/share/snake/rc.reboot

this is an individual nas system, that has a usb hdd 320G mounted to it, but I think all of the system files are within the memory of the nas system (if you unplug the hdd, still can turn the machine on and off). so i don't think the hdd matters in this case.

Thanks again

All of this information would have been help full when you first asked your question.

 

so i don't think the hdd matters in this case.

 

Indeed it does. If you want /etc/ to be persistent your going to need persistent storage. Generally though, the /etc directory needs to be on the root partition because the fstab file is read from there at boot time. You could try mounting /etc to a persistent drive late in the boot process maybe, I can see this getting pretty tricky.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
