I’ve been trying for days and have been impossible.

All I get is not enough permission to access share from client

`testparm

Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf

Loaded services file OK.

Weak crypto is allowed by GnuTLS (e.g. NTLM as a compatibility fallback)

Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE

    This is the most convoluted use of basic services I’ve ever seen just to make Samba work 😂😂😂

    Y’know, there’s a MUCH simpler way to make this work by just using a regular distribution without these limitations.

      What you call a limitation is a way to ensure uptime. Yes, it sometimes involves unique ways of solving problems, but that doesn’t mean going with a traditional mutable system is the best option for people’s needs.

      I have Bazzite on a shared laptop, and knowing that the people who will use it won’t have to worry about fucking up the system with a bad update is great peace of mind.

          Lucky you? I can’t say the same.

          Regardless, OP didn’t ask if they should just switch, they asked how to solve their problem. They can decide for themselves if they want to try to use containers or just install traditional Fedora.
