[Quantian-general] Apache and Samba

My comments may seem somewhat peculiar to those more
experienced with Quantian (or even Knoppix). I was
somewhat surprised that I was able to start Apache,
but then I navigated to /var/www and discovered that I
was able to edit index.html as root. I'm sure it
didn't get melted into the plastic. What's going on?

I had a similar experience when editing smb.conf, and
by changing the name of the workgroup made a
connection with a Windows computer. I hope this
indicated that you can, in general, edit the white
files, and that the changes are preserved between
reboots. I would still like to install Quantian to the
hard drive, but it is surprisingly versatile as is.
