thanks for the tip, but I don't think it's in that type of configurationI've made a fix for now, which is not terribly elegant but It will do for my purposes:
reboot the nas login via telnet cut and paste from text file these commands:ps | grep daapd | cut -c 0-6 | while read id; do echo "killing "$id; kill $id; done daapd -C /mnt/md1/.daapd-cache -n nas -p 3689 -s 60000 /mnt/md1/public/music -t 0 -d &
wait for maybe a minute for the initial scan to complete then once the daapd starts working it keeps going, problem solved.Obvoiusly I'd like to put this in to a startup script somewhere after the initial daapd stuff has run, but I'm not sure this is possilble on my firmware. I'm using the 2.3.3a that came with the box as I don't want to lose my network printer support. Otherwise I'd go with Tinky, with which I could use my own scripts in init.d
thanks for the help guys. Robin----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob" <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Looking at the processes:My initial experiments with this box also provided little joy at trying to alter the config files. What I found DID work was to save the configuration to a local file, unpack it (it's just a tar archive) edit the relevant file, and add the file back to the original archive, before restoring the configuration. This got me /etc/exports changed at least when I first got the box, still on 2.3.3 firmware. I've a vague recollection that the file was different on 2.3.3a, though, but I wasn't really looking that hard that time. Also, there seem to be a lot of configuration options in /system/codb/objects which is a filesystem in the flash, so you might also try digging around in there, although I've not spotted anything relevant to your query myself during the very quick look I just had. Good Luck, Rob
