I have a server running Raspbian OS. I use it as both a NAS samba server and as a Jellyfin media server.
Jellyfin
I have used the following settings to make the media files accessible by Jellyfin
/etc/group: multimedia:x:1001:pi,jellyfin
/etc/fstab: UUID=ED94-E601 /media/multimedia auto gid=1001,uid=1000,users,auto,noatime 0 0
uid=1000 is pi.
This works well. I am able to access the media files from Jellyfin clients.
Samba
I have the following entry in etc/samba/smb.conf in addition to the default entries
[pishare]
comment = Share
path = "/media/MULTIMEDIA/share"
writeable = Yes
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
public = no
When I connect to the samba server from a MacOS client as a registered samba user, I see two folcers: pi (home) and pishare.
I can access pi just fine.
When I try to access pishare I get an error message on my Mac client: "The operation cant be completed because the original item for pishare cant be found". I have googled on this error message, but it seems to be very generic so my search did not find a solution that worked for me.
What can I change to make the Samba pishare work?
