Changing allowed range of IP addresses (EX4100)

Hello all,

I have a problem with access to the NAS (MyCloud EX4100) installed in our lab. Basically it refuses connection to most of the computers in the lab. I managed to fix this by replacing the lines in the apache’s config httpd.conf:

Require ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/22

to

Require ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/16

…and restarting httpd. However, every couple of days apparently apache restarts, and overwrites the whole directory (/usr/local/apache2/conf/) including httpd.conf with the old settings.

Does anybody know how to stop this behavior? Thank you in advance!

Thank you very much! This is very informative.
