Hi,
I'm new to FreeNAS 8, but ran a 0.69 FreeNAS box for a while before upgrading.
I'm also a bit of a Linux/FreeBSD newb too, but I feel I'm starting to get my head around the whole thing.
Ultimately I'm trying to install MPD5 in order to setup a PPTP server, but the problems I'm encountering seem to be with FreeNAS.
I ssh into FreeNAS from my Windows machine, and then I use su to work as the root account.
I then use nano /etc/rc.conf and make a few changes to that file. Using Ctrl-X to exit, then saying Yes to write out changes tells me that it wrote 48 lines.
I then nano in again to check the file and my changes are still there.
Finally, I reboot and when I check the file again, the changes I've made are gone.
Also, the files and folders setup by the MPD5 installation (/usr/local/etc/mpd5) have vanished.
What am I doing wrong?
