[02:43] <Delemas> I've got some Samba weirdness that doesn't make sense based on the smb.conf. Both client and server are Ubuntu 22.04. If I leverage an file explorer like Thunar file operations on the workgroup shares work. If I attempt to save files from either Thunderbird or Firefox I get access denied attempting to write the a share. I suspect some kind of security gone awry but I'm not sure what is doing it. Anyone know what I'm missing?
[02:53] <JanC> Delemas: are you using Firefox from a snap or from a normal package?
[02:54] <Delemas> My systems only use normal packages. Hate snap with a passion.
[02:55] <JanC> I'm asking because the default Firefox comes as a snap now, and it might cause such issues...
[02:55] <Delemas> Yes I really hated that when I upgraded. I promptly removed it and when back to packaged software.
[02:58] <Delemas> snapd isn't even installed here so it's definitely not that.
[03:00] <JanC> maybe you can see on the server side if there are any errors logged there?
[03:02] <Delemas> I meant I went back to packaged software... Not sure if it's some kind of weird apparmor stuff or what... I haven't found anything useful so far. I may have to increase verbosity or investigate client side loging.
[03:03] <JanC> apparmor stuff would be logged client side
[03:18] <Delemas> Hmm apparmor enabled but nothing in aa-status for firefox. It must be on because the Firefox apparmor.d config seems to limit writes to the downloads folder which is painfully excessive.
[03:21] <Delemas> hmm perhaps painfully restrictive is a better word...
[03:47] <Delemas> Ah well thanks for the help JanC. Disabling apparmor didn't help so it's not that. I reenabled it. Tomorrow problem I guess. ttyl
