On my previous set-up, using a DM500HD as the card server, then whenever I made changes to cccam.cfg all I had to do was copy it across to the /etc filder and it was live straight away.
On my new set-up, using a Linux-based PC, I need to copy it to a temporary directory and then run a script that stops cccam, copies the file and then restarts cccam.
Can anyone explain why there is this difference and is it really necessary on the Linux PC to stop/start cccam?
