Changes in EAP.CONF

[dre2007]

Hello all,

I got a question about the eap.conf file. When i adjust eap.conf and save it there isn’t a problem. The problem occurs when I restart the service. When I restart radius it erases the changes I made in eap.conf. It does use the changes and the radius server is working but the lines ain’t in the eap.conf file. Does anyone has a solution for this. So in short, why does zeroshell erase my changes in eap.conf when I restart Radius.

Sincerely,

Most likely upon restart of service the config is reread from another part of the filesystem, where it resides in a read-only form. You either have to use only the GUI to make changes or create pre-boot or post-boot scripts to alter the contents of the files and make changes permanent.

Thank you for you quick reply. Can you please explain me how to create a script or give me a wep page with an example of it? I am not much of a programer. So i need some help 🙄

The script can be something as simple as a copy command, for example:

cp  /Database/patch/eap.conf /some/other/location/eap.conf

And you place it in “System” -> “Setup” -> “Startup/Cron” -> “PreBoot”

Kind regards,

Okay it works 🙂 I have the solution. You can find the map with the following command:

find / -name eap.conf

It will display the right file. I am sorry for asking such a noobish question…

But thanks again for your quick response
