Doesn't restore passwd and shadow file after backup
apuboard:
I was trying to change my password for the user tc, I also made a backup with
--- Code: --- filetool.sh -b
--- End code ---
and I added /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd to .filetool.lst. After I reboot, the new password is lost and there's the same passwd and shadow config like I had before. Do I need other files to backup or could it be a problem with the filetool?
bmarkus:
Which version and architecture are you referring to?
apuboard:
I'm using the kernel version: 3.16.6-tinycore or did you ask for the version of filetool?
However, if I run a dry backup the two files are listed.
Rich:
Hi apuboard
Bmarkus wants to know what do you get if you enter:
--- Code: ---version
--- End code ---
and is this for ARM, X86, x86_64.
apuboard:
So it turned out that I wasn't allowed to backup the shadow file, so I just wrote my hashes inside my passwd file. Not the best solution, but works for me. :D
