Something I learned in the past - Apache server's user, www-data, can't be logged into by default. File "/etc/passwd" shows:
> root:x:0:0:root:/root:/usr/sbin/nologin
> www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/usr/sbin/nologin
You can change www-data to /var/www:/bin/bash to login. Oddly, www-data can't access this text file even after setting it to full access:
> $ chmod 777 /home/ubuntu/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/brave_ipfs/config
> [ -> 0777/-rwxrwxrwx ]
That plain text file was originally this:
> $ stat /home/ubuntu/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/brave_ipfs/config
> [...]Access: (0600/-rw-------)
Trying to stat "config" with www-data = permission denied  >>/10501/. Denied even when it was 777; same story with these settings probably:
> $ setfacl -m "u:www-data:rw" /home/ubuntu/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/brave_ipfs/config
> [ -> 0660/-rw-rw---- ]
> $ chmod 755 /home/ubuntu/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/brave_ipfs/config
> [ -> 0755/-rwxr-xr-x ]
Login as www-data:
> $ sudo su www-data
> [try stuff]
Why would it be helpful if www-data/Apache could access that file? Because then I could run IPFS commands anywhere in a LAN, such as using a shitty mobile device. I can use a mobile device with a proprietary OS and save stuff with web.archive.org, but that's remote and not local. LAN = local.

Instead of working on a "LAN-complete" WBM alternative (maybe one already exists?), I could focus on other stuff. Tasks such as organization, redundancy, and whatnot (also Xitter  >>/10548/). When uploading to archive.org, I saw that the ia CLI program was being dumb again:

Should have checked to see if I had write privileges for that before uploading megabytes.
