Turn on Remote Login to access your Mac from another computer using SSH (Secure Shell Protocol) or SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This had been working for me for a long time, but at some point something happened to my TCC database and then rsync<\/code> started failing:<\/p>\n\n

rsync: opendir \"\/Users\/mjt\/Documents\/C-Command\/.\" failed: Operation not permitted (1)\nrsync: failed to set times on \"\/Users\/mjt\/Documents\/Code\/Git\": Operation not permitted (1)\n<\/pre>\n\n
This looked like a Full Disk Access problem, but the old solution<\/a> of adding sshd<\/code> and rsync<\/code> to System Settings ‣ Privacy & Security ‣ Full Disk Access<\/strong> didn’t help.<\/p>\n\n
The trick is that there’s now a separate Allow full disk access for remote users<\/strong> setting, but it’s under General ‣ Sharing<\/strong> instead of Privacy & Security ‣ Full Disk Access<\/strong>. And it’s now<\/a> only visible if you click the little i<\/strong> button next to Remote Login<\/strong>. With this selected, you don’t need to give sshd<\/code> Full Disk Access.<\/p>\n
There is no corresopnding setting in the i<\/strong> next to File Sharing<\/strong>, so perhaps you still<\/a> have to give smbd<\/code> Full Disk Access manually.<\/p>\n\n
