It -never- ceases to amaze me how I -still- sometimes don't think through all (directory and file) permissions consequences even after more than a dozen years since converting virtually everything over to Linux and other *nix flavors. [ Here I had just increased access security -- so I could quickly surmise permissions were likely the problem, but I -really- didn't "see" folder execute (off) as the logical reason for the breakage. ] That handy link you referenced is also a great reminder to take better advantage of the "sticky bit." I think many of us can forget the (strong!) utility of that at our peril! I certainly know I can take better advantage. :confused: :rolleyes: *Thanks again!* ------------------------------------------------- I help administer various Squeezeboxes (mostly Classic / SB3, Touch and an ever greater number of 'SqueezeLite' (https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/squeezelite/) devices) These clients typically run against LMS 7.9x on LinuxMint 20.x or Ubuntu 20.04.x Open Source 'Squeezer' (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/uk.org.ngo.squeezer/) from F-Droid serves as a remote control for most of these installations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fbachofner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66214 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115426 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
