Edited NFS permissions not saving
I have the latest ipsy build and an Archer c7 v2. I have an external hard drive attached to the usb that is set up to use NFS sharing. I couldn't get Kodi to see the NFS share and after some research discovered that the problem was the permissions. So I installed Putty and edited the etc/exports. It was working fine and Kodi could see the share but I then discovered that after a router reboot the etc/exports reverted back to the old settings. How can I make the changes permanent? I'm very new to all of this so feel free to dumb it down for me
Re: Edited NFS permissions not saving
To help you further I'd need to know exactly what you changed.
Or if you want to try it out yourself, everything you need is at /etc/init.d/nfsd

Re: Edited NFS permissions not saving
The only things I changed were secure to insecure and root_squash to all_squash.
Thank you for offering to help. I generally try to research and figure things out on my own but this is really new territory for me.

Re: Edited NFS permissions not saving
Line 72 of /etc/init.d/nfsd
Change $secure to be insecure
Change root_squash to be all_squash
This will apply these settings to all NFS servers you set up from the router.
I'll have to do some further testing but there's definitely a logic error regarding the secure/insecure thing.
We don't currently offer the option to change root squash to all squash.
I'll have to check whether this option is worthwhile adding.

Re: Edited NFS permissions not saving
I'm apparently doing something wrong. If I type /etc/init.d/nfsd into Putty, all that happens is a short list of available commands like start and stop.
Re: Edited NFS permissions not saving
You need to edit the file, not execute it.
Use your favourite Linux CLI editor or use something like WinSCP.
Here is the file and line numbers for reference:
