Let us know how you get on (for further reference).

I've got an ASUS-X550CA laptop from 2014. Intel Core i5-3337U; 12Gb; 1Tb SSD; 1Tb HDD; Windows 10 64-bit Home single language
Never had a scrap of trouble.

I think it was Lazarus Long, in Robert Heinlein's 'Time Enough For Love', who said "Always vote. There might not be anyone you want to vote for, but there is always someone you want to vote against." I think, in this case, it's the orange-faced one. You both have my thanks - even though I'...

Why would we need "AI" to record meetings? Especially "Generative AI", known to "hallucinate" and deemphasize extreme views. See the GAI of comments on Amazon products. Court reporters have been doing exact reproductions of evidence etc. for years. No AI there. Just aud...

I'm 74yo he <g>. Yes, I like MX, too, xfce is still great. Debian is why I suggested LMDE6 (Linux Mint Debian Edition), Cinnamon only, though .

OK. I don't know Endless. If it's immutable, does that mean you can't change configuration files? Your Endless machine is the client for this, your Apple machine is the server. Is there a directory /home/wove/.local/etc/samba with an smb.conf inside it? Or /home/wove/.local/etc with smb.conf? Reread...

Did you find smb.conf in /etc/ on the client (linux) or the server (apple)? smb.conf shouldn't be in /etc but in /etc/samba/ on the client (linux box) The 'client min protocol = NT1' should be on the client Perhaps 'server min protocol = NT1' in the smb.conf on the apple server Yes! The Apple Time C...

As it's an old Apple device, it's probably using SMB1 which is a no-no for a modern Windows or Linux install. Can you set 'client min protocol = NT1' in your local (linux) smb.conf file? I presume you do have the username/password for the time capsule smb account.

If Windows sees an SMB share, can Linux see the share too? smbclient -L timecapIPaddress . If so, at least the IP address is correct. You can connect to server with the SMB (Windows) protocol. Try mount.cifs or mount.smb3 (see man page). Both these next are unlikely on Apple kit. What do you see wit...

The ones who did, are all deceased

Now there's good planning.
