Command line config restore

[n3b]

I am running pfsense on an embedded system.

How can I restore a config from the shell?

Thanks :-)

I kinda figured it out.

once in your shell, you have to remount the /cf partition as writeable

make a note of the permissions on /cf/conf/config.xml

mount -u /cf

Then copy in your config

scp <source> /cf/conf/config.xml

make sure your permissions are okay

Then reload the config

/etc/rc.reload_all start

all done  ;D

rm /tmp/config.cache if it exists before issuing reload_* commands.
