All the directories you mention are *used* by TemplateBasedVMs, but not *inherited* by them. Changes you make there in the template will appear in the TemplateBasedVM when you boot it, but changes you make in the TemplateBasedVM while it is running will not be persistent. You can use bind-dirs to change this behaviour. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
