Hi Everybody
I have been able to connect to my FreeNAS PC from Windows 7 PC using SSH through PuTTy. I am able to login - no problems. My intent is that this user should be able to shutdown/reboot my FreeNAS PC having logged in from my Windows PC. I have created this user in FreeNAS PC with full access.
I did create the 'shutdown.allow' file in the /etc folder with this user's username as the only entry in it.
When I give this command at my PuTTy terminal, it comes up with 'Permission Denied' error? Shouldn't it now already have the rights to do it? What else do I need to change in the settings to achieve this?
P.S. It seems this file /etc/shutdown.allow gets deleted when its rebooted from the web client. Is there a way to retain this file with the contents permanently?
Best regards
Deepak
