Where does the MBL store User & Share settings

Hi

I have tried to write a script to back up the settings of my MBL and can backup most of the settings under the settings tab of the UI but I don’t know where the User & Shares information is stored (I have backed up the Samba settings and Passwd file but that won’t restore to the UI)

If anyone knows how to backup these settings it would be very useful

Well, the dashboard under /settings/utilities/ has an option for “Import/Export Current config”. Now, whether that satifies your need is a different story.

The above applies to WD software part. Now, if you want the OS backup, that is a bit more complicated. Nevertheless, should be doable, but might be too many files all over the place. Search for how to backup Linux systems. The MBL runs Debian Lenny distribution.

Chances are you have to treat them different, OS vs WD GUI.
