SSH Configuration reset on reboot

Question

Hi lads,I have just freshly reset my RN102.&nbsp;There is a bug that is annoying me terribly,&nbsp;every time I reboot the system the SSH configuration is messed up / lost, somehow it is being reset.&nbsp;I follow this site to setup 2fa&nbsp;http://www.howtogeek.com/121650/how-to-secure-ssh-with-google-authenticators-two-factor-authentication/ it works fine until reboot, than I loose connectivity since the ssd_config file is being overwritten.&nbsp;Why is this happening? Why is the SSH conf file overwritten?&nbsp;The only way to gain access again is restoring a former version of the aforementioned file using the indications here:https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/RESOLVED-Can-t-SSH-login-with-Root-and-admin-pass/td-p/961120

Some config files we attempt to self repair. This is one of them.

I hoped to solve the issue editing the SSHD file in the default folder.&nbsp;It worked fine after reboot.&nbsp;Until the NAS completely stuck and I had to pull the power cord to restart it.&nbsp;That is when I lost SSH configuration AGAIN....&nbsp;HELP!

Using the guide I mentioned in the first post, I also edited the file in :&nbsp;/etc/default/config/etc/ssh/sshd_config&nbsp;And it worked just until I pulled the cord.&nbsp;Then the parameters went belly up again and I lost SSH.&nbsp;Any help is appreciated here
