Don't use:

mount -o remount,rw /

to unmount the root filesystem and edit the smb files. The Mede8er cannot write the files back and the only recover is a new firmware flash.

Somehow it is in flash and it will be corrupted.

Change of workgroup seems to be possible with the modded version of Shizzl:

Read the  Mede8er 400X/500X Beginners Guide
or Mede8er 500X2/400X2/450X2 Beginners Guide

Also check the Couto X3D Newbies Guide first.

Yep, the only solution so far. I was thinking of modding the startup script under linux and copy the smb files from the harddisk on boot before nas support is loaded. But not needed with custom firmware.
