MAC - Read/write share - can browse whole share but cannot open files, or copy to/from share

This one is a bit of a different one to all the results I'm finding with search.

 

I have a private unraid share that I am accessing via SMB from a mac. Credentials seem to be ok.

 

The issue I am finding is that I can browse the full share, go into folders, see lists of folders and files, but I cannot open any files (or even preview them, it just shows a file icon) and I cannot copy to the server either. It seems to be applicable for all shares that I try to access, but interestingly, time machine can still successfully backup to the time machine share.

 

I've posted diagnostics below...any ideas? I'm looking into how to reset permissions...but I have not received any permission errors. The error I receive during an attempted copy to server is "The operation can’t be completed because one or more required items can’t be found."

 

Edit1: running docker safe perms did not help

I think this can be closed - it is not an unraid issue.

 

The issue is with how a mac keeps open its authentication over long periods of time/sleep/disconnect/reconnect etc. A reboot (of the mac) solved the issue immediately.

 

This thread suggested it:

Thankyou Squid for checking in!
