I installed LibreELEC (Milhouse) devel-20181230210312-#1230-g41d2c65 (RPi2.arm) on my Raspberry and tried to change the samba.conf to my needs.
Thing is, I can reboot all I want, it won't take my samba.conf, my new samba shares do not show up. I tried changing the samba.conf.sample (or deleting it) - I get a new copy from the system, but other than that - nothing.
How to force the system to accept my samba.conf in /storage/.config?
Thank you.
What did you edit it with? Not every Windows editor is Linux-EOL compatible.
I used vim, so I'm pretty sure it's not the newlines.
You need to rename/copy samba.conf.sample to samba.conf in /storage/.config.
I already did.
I sshd into my raspberry, opened the samba.conf.sample, changed it to my needs, saved it to samba.conf, rebooted, had no success.
I even tried taking the original samba.conf.sample, just deleted one of the shares, saved to samba.conf, rebooted - share back again.
(I want to access some nfs shares. I already mounted these shares via the system.d-folder and the respective mount-files. )
Whoa! I just tested my samba.conf with testparm, and now the changes get applied. Funny behaviour, is this a bug?
Never used testparm and my conf file was always picked.
