I've noticed that smartd doesn't monitor my drives. How do I get it to
look at and monitor my two SATA drives?

I added

  /dev/sda -a
  /dev/sdb -a

to the smartd.conf file.  When I restart the smart daemon, the
smartd.conf file is rewritten without those two lines. The log file
indicates that smartd is not monitoring any drives:

smartd[3343]: Configuration file /etc/smartd.conf parsed but has no
entries (like /dev/hda)
smartd[3343]: Monitoring 0 ATA and 0 SCSI devices
smartd[3345]: smartd has fork()ed into background mode. New PID=3345.

I can see them manually through smartctl.
