## How to use bind-dirs.sh? ##
Inside your TemplateBasedVM.
1. Make sure folder `/rw/config/qubes-bind-dirs.d` exists.
sudo mkdir -p /rw/config/qubes-bind-dirs.d
2. Create a file `/rw/config/qubes-bind-dirs.d/50_user.conf` with root rights inside a VM.
3. Append a folder or file to the `binds` variable. In the following example we are using folder `/var/lib/tor`. You can replace that folder with a folder or file of your choice.
sudo nano /rw/config/qubes-bind-dirs.d/50_user.conf
3. Append a folder or file to the `binds` variable. In the following example we are using folder `/var/lib/tor`. You can replace that folder with a folder of your choice.
binds+=( '/var/lib/tor' )
In the following example we are using file `/etc/tor/torrc`. You can replace that file with a file of your choice.
binds+=( '/etc/tor/torrc' )
Multiple configuration lines, files and folders supported. For example, you could use both.
binds+=( '/var/lib/tor' )
binds+=( '/etc/tor/torrc' )
4. Save.
5. Reboot the VM.
5. Reboot your TemplateBasedVM.
6. Done.
If you added for example folder `/var/lib/tor` to the `binds` variable, from now any files within that folder would persist reboots. If you added for example file `/etc/tor/torrc` to the `binds` variable, from now any modifications to that file would persist reboots.
## Other Configuration Folders ##
* `/usr/lib/qubes-bind-dirs.d` (lowest priority, for packages)
