How to set templates-custom in SME server 7.x

With regards to the online manual from contribs.org site , I found that these instruction has some steps missing if you want to customize your system configuration. Using an example can say it all: Objective: add custom config in /etc/resolv.conf Steps: 1. Make a directory structure as follow: mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/resolv.conf/ 2.cp the file from /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/resolv.conf/ to /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/resolv.conf/. In my case, I only copy 25nameserver. 3. vi 25nameserver. Type the text in file: nameserver 1.2.3.4 4. Save 5. Issue the command: expand-template /etc/resolv.conf 6. Issue the command again: signal-event reboot Then, once restart completed, you can find that your customized settings has been applied Step 5 and 6 are not noted in manual, or at least I cannot find it until I search the forum . Hope it helps someone. Powered by ScribeFire .
