Hello.
After a while, I'm back on a Mac and refreshing my skills.
I currently have a Studio running Sequoia and I am having weird issues with sharing a folder in my Mac.
I already followed the Apple instructions here (which by the way, are incorrect) : https://support.apple.com/en-bw/guide/mac-help/mh17131/15.0/mac/15.0
The issue is, when I try to connect to my Mac from an Android device (Pixel 8) using 2 different SMB capable apps, they are getting access denied errors.
Tried switching between SMB versions on those apps, same error.
I then tried from a Linux VM and received the same error.
Tried from a windows PC and again, same error.
It does works on my iPad Pro, but only if I turn on "Allow full access to all users"
As far as I can tell, all the settings are correct on my Mac yet the issue exists.
Any suggestions as to what I am missing?
Edit Tried again from a Windows 11 VM and it worked, but now, nothing else is able to connect, not even the iPad.
