Info only

KDE Firewall does NOT have a proper Samba aka SMB preconfigured rule acceptable for SMB3 [1]. There is no provision (other than terminal) to delete/edit an existing (ufw) firewall rule.

Workaround - Install the gufw app via MX Package Installer to manager the KDE 25 Uncomplicated Firewall with it instead.

1) Samba version 3 and TCP over NetBIOS. The KDE firewall's preconfigured rule adds SMB1 aka NT1 support only. Modern network appliances would not be reachable.

How is different from allowing samba though ufw? I don't see the difference...

If I try to allow samba in ufw I get the message that the rule is already set up.

UDP 137 and 138 are old, aka SMB1/NT1 Samba. New Samba aka SMB2/SMB3 is TCP 445.

On MX 21/23 the firewall preconfigured SAMBA rule adds - UDP 137 & 138 and TCP 139 & 445.

Some throw in TCP 139 in preconfigured rulesets, but >99% of the time its absence is meaningless.

MX 25 KDE beta 1 - Using Dolphin File Manager 25.04.3 to connect and open to Samba aka SMB shares does NOT work. A listing of shares is visible. Using smbclient connection in terminal can be made.

Workaround - Install Nemo File Manager ... Thunar not available.

I will d/l and try Debian Trixie KDE to see if this is truly upstream from MX Linux.
I just downloaded Debian 13.1 KDE Live and debian-13.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso. The Live worked OK when run Live but fails as an installed OS. debian-13.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso also failed,

The smbclient test confirms the core MX25 KDE Samba is functional. Something in Debian-land is way off with Dolphin or its underlying bits. Well beyond my pay grade...

I don't want to muddy the waters further. D_O has it right about Synaptic BUT I also have noticed a difference in how MX-23 and MX-25 deal with GTK4 themes... as an example on my MX-23 based system some early GTK4 Gnome apps like Simple Scan will correctly pick up the correct GTK4 theme but Simple Scan on an MX-25 base with the exact same GTK4 theme doesn't automatically select the correct theme. In those cases I've needed to use @Melber's handy GTK4 Theme selector utility and then they are correctly linked and work. As Gnome GTK4 evolves it seems less likely to work out of the box with themes that have early implementations of GTK4 support in them. It's all about libadwaita getting the correct linking to the selected GTK4 theme.
@AVLinux Where can I find this GTK4 Theme selector utility? I'd like to take a look at it.
https://github.com/aleritty/gtk4-theme-manager
Thanks. I grabbed the one from the test repo and will play around with it.
This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.

Hi,
I did a fresh reinstallation (of KDE) and spent some more time in testing.
  • Session storing - storing of session seems to work, the issue rises on restoring of the session.
    It turned out, that restoring of KDE-apps works fine, but restoring of Non-KDE-apps (like galculator or zim) fails.
  • KMail - kmail does not adopt the settings from mx23. You have to set everything up again.
  • Brave - seems to work. There's an option to "use titlebar from window manager" which brings in the missed icons
  • Conky - the failure on startup turned out to be a pebcak - I was able to solve it by looking at provided conkies from mx
  • Shutdown/reboot - If the session is set to "Restore Manual saved Session", the computer cannot be shut down or restarted via the main menu, when the session is saved manually. This can only be done via the command line.
    After a restart, if the session is not saved manually, shutting down and restarting from the main menu will work again.
and the qsi:

UFW sets 445 too even when I run it from Settings (although it might not show there, but when I run "ufw status verbose" I see it was set up correctly as far as I can see):

Yes, the GUI has set the user UFW rule as defined by /etc/ufw/applications.d/samba to what it has directed.

In that file the line 'ports=137, 138/udp|139, 445/tcp' is still OLD practice and NOT generally recommended (for the last many years).

A change to 'ports=139, 445/tcp' would be far more secure.
