From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can you set the permissions of the file to read only? That way nothing else can edit it on the fly?
chmod 444 filename
would make it so the owner, group, and everyone else can only read the file. You can change modification of the file again if you have to edit it.
I could do that, the question is what is the correct config file? I think the .state files are more like snapshots wich are applied to the config when i restore it.
